PETALING JAYA: The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) does not pay its coaching staff “excessive” salaries, FAM president Hamidin Amin said.
“Overall, if we follow each individual (assistant coach) according to their ranking in the team, their salaries are around US$5,000-US$10,000, and even up to US$15,000.
“If it’s the head coach, (the salary) is higher, but everything is reasonable. (Salaries) are below US$20,000 but all in US dollars,” Berita Harian quoted him as saying.
“FAM pays all (salaries).”
The current Harimau Malaya coaching staff consists of Kim Pan Gon as the head coach. He has two assistant coaches – Pau Marti Vicente and E Elavarasan.
The other members of the team include assistant coach Park Bo-bae, performance analyst Lim Jae-hun, and his assistant, Lee Je-yoon, fitness coach Park Ji-hyeon and goalkeeper coach Cho Jun-ho.
