The Liberia Football Association are set to hold talks with Italian coach Roberto Landi about a possible return to take charge of Lone Star. Landi was sacked in February 2012 after being in charge for less than a year during which time he won just twice in eight matches. The former goalkeeper is due to arrive in Monrovia in the coming days to discuss his return.

He could be in place for the second of Liberia's 2015 Africa Cup of Nations first round qualifier in Lesotho on the weekend of 31 May.
The Lone Star lead 1:0 from the first leg, thanks to a goal from captain Anthony Laffour in Monrovia on Sunday.

If Liberia can win the tie they will play the winner of between Kenya and Comoros Islands to decide who advances to Group C of the Nations Cup qualifiers. Kenya also won their first leg 1:0 on Sunday in Nairobi. Angola, Burkina Faso and Gabon have all been given byes into Group C.
