It was only in July that Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) rolled out their expansive Malaysian Football DNA plan, which is a project spearheaded by their Technical Director, Peter de Roo. The Dutchman however is only contracted to FAM until the end of September 2019 and as such there were concerns that he might leave with the DNA project still in its infancy.
However FAM president Dato Hamidin Mohd Amin confirmed after a Football Coaches Assocation of Malaysia (PJBM) event in Petaling Jaya that the organisation will be making efforts to retain the services of the 49-year-old Technical Director.
