I am happy to state that the issue of retainer contracts has been dealt with successfully. A lot of compromises have been made on both sides and a framework has been agreed upon, paving the way to move forward.
Every day, they will be under the control of the coach. He may want them to play in a territorial match. He may want them in a classroom. Everyone on a retainer will be under year-long development program, the same as with all international teams.
