Hi Ed002,

Would you be able to provide a little update on persons of interest for the DOF position or whatever it's called. Ward's replacent essentially.

As always, greatly appreciate all you do and anything you can provide.

Thanks,
Davey.

{Ed002's Note - I don't want to get in to that too much as I know there have been tentative enquiries made with, I believe, four candidates. It would not be right to name all of them Davey.}

Ed, do you see this appointment happen before start of next summer transfer window?

{Ed002's Note - I would think so.}

Hi Ed02. Is Markus Krosche a viable candidate? Much thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - Markus Krosche is one of those of interest certainly with Vivell not being an option.}

Ed2 - Could you remind us, is this a DOF position or something more similar to Edwards / Ward role?

{Ed002's Note - Edwards and Ward are really negotiators and contracts folk - rather than the likes of Berta, Monchi or Vivell who are football people and excel in that role.}

Thanks for the insights and info Ed. It does seem like a DOF is an important role in modern football so hope we sort that out soon.

Much thanks for the info Ed02. Think Krosche has done a great job at EF but may not want to leave Germany.

sorry ed2, I mean - are we recruiting for a DOF like Berta, Monci or will it be the same role like how Edwards/ Ward had?

{Ed002's Note - They want a football person rather than a straight negotiator.}
