KATHMANDU: All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) has formed three-member taskforce under retired Major General of Nepali Army Victor Rana to find the facts regarding the dispute between players and coach.

The taskforce will include former Nepali international player and retired Major General Victor Rana, former Nepali international player Bidur Bista and Nepal National and International Players Association Vice President Dipak Thapa.

An emergency Executive Committee meeting on Sunday decided to form the Problem Identification and Recommendation Taskforce. The taskforce will have seven days to submit its report.
