Lovemore Fazili faces uncertain future after AWCON final

Lovemore Fazili faces an uncertain future with the Malawi national team as his contract is set to expire immediately following Sunday's Africa Cup of Nations final. The coach's current deal concludes at the end of the tournament, regardless of the result against Cameroon.

The Football Association of Malawi (FAM) must now decide whether to extend the contract of the man who led the Scorchers to their most successful continental run. This decision comes as the team prepares for the final match of the competition.

Fazili has maintained his composure regarding the situation. He has stated that his attention is entirely on the upcoming match against Cameroon rather than his personal employment status.

There is significant debate among analysts and supporters concerning the coach's position. Many argue that the national team cannot afford to lose the manager following such a historic achievement in the tournament.

Discussions regarding a potential new contract are expected to occur after the final has concluded. However, no agreement or commitment has been reached between the coach and the football authorities at this time.

FAM officials have not commented on the contract situation. The association has maintained that the focus of the squad must remain on the task of winning the trophy.
