The Fiji Rugby Union will take its time in naming the Digicel Fiji Sevens manager for next season's IRB World Sevens Series.

While two candidates were shortlisted for the manager's post which was supposed to be announced earlier this month, it is understood the FRU wants Sevens coach Waisale Serevi to sign his contract first before they appoint the manager.

Serevi had earlier indicated that he wants to have a say in who will be the manager for the side although the FRU board maintains that they have the final decision.

Suva Soccer president Maretino Nemani and a USP lecturer who was a former Nadi rugby manager are the front runners for the manager's position.
