JAMAICA Football Federation (JFF) President Michael Ricketts says Rudolph Speid is unfazed by the delay in the decision to name a permanent Reggae Boyz head coach, and remains motivated to continue on an interim basis during the search.

Speid, who has been in the role since Deember, after Steve McClaren’s departure, will oversee the national senior men’s team for the remainder of 2026.

As the Jamaica Observer reported last Friday, the decision comes after the JFF Board of Directors accepted a recommendation from the technical committee to extend the search by a further five months to allow for a more thorough review of applicants.
