Lautoka soccer team has suffered a setback as two of its top players will not be playing in the Courts IDC.

Alvin Avinesh and Peni Finau were not registered in the teams’ 30 member squad last week as they had some personal commitments.

Now the two players are back with the team and want to play but Fiji Football Association rules does not allow new players to be registered in the 22 member squad.

Meanwhile, former Nadi soccer coach, Lambert Sarju has been appointed as the new Lautoka team coach.

Lautoka will play Nadroga 4.45pm next Wednesday at Govind Park in its first match of the Courts IDC.
