PETALING JAYA: Melaka wasted little time in appointing a new tactician.

The Mousedeer have hired E. Elavarasan as their new coach to replace Datuk K. Devan, with former Sarawak winger Muamer Salibasic joining him as assistant.

After the sudden departures of Devan and his assistant S. Subramaniam, Melaka acted swiftly in their search for a coach, and Elavarasan’s appointment reflects their commitment to steady the ship.
