Sep 29, Kathmandu: The resignation of the head coach of the Nepali national football team Abdullah Almutairi has been accepted.

Almutairi's resignation was accepted by the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) working committee meeting held on September 26. It is reported that the ANFA working committee meeting accepted the resignation before Nepal's friendly match against Bangladesh on September 27. Almutairi submitted his resignation to ANFA a few weeks ago.

ANFA appointed Pradeep Humagai as the acting head coach for the match against Bangladesh. On Tuesday, Nepal won the match 3-1 and Humagai's tenure also ended. ANFA has not yet made any decision regarding the appointment of a new coach.
