Armenian football federation chief regrets that head coach Vardan
Minsyan decided to leave the Armenian national squad.
"He has still a lot of things to do in the Armenian football, but I
failed to persuade him to stay," said Ruben Hayrapetyan, President
of the Armenian Football Federation.
Hayrapetyan said he would like to continue working with Minasyan,
pointing at his great potential.
As to a new coach, the talks are underway, he told reporters on
Wednesday. Hayrapetyan said Minasyan advised that the national squad
should have an Italian or Spanish manager.
"I held talks with Michel Der Zakarian, but he refused to accept
the offer. He cannot head the squad at the moment," the federation
chief added.
"I would not like to speak about Sergio Markarian, as he had sent
a written request not to comment on his 'not coming to Armenian
national'."
