FAW could name Speed successor

The FAW could appoint a successor to the late Gary Speed when they meet this week.

The Football Association of Wales could appoint a successor to the late Gary Speed when they meet later today (Monday).

The 42-year-old was found hanged at his home in Cheshire last month.

Assistant coach Raymond Verheijen has called on the FAW to appoint either himself or Osian Roberts to carry on the progress made under Speed.

"Tomorrow FAW meet about future of Wales," the Dutchman tweeted.

"Hopefully the board will respect Gary's wish so Osian Roberts and myself can lead the team to Brazil.

"[There is] no need for new manager with new ideas. Our success was based on Gary's clear structure. Everybody knows what to do for mission Brazil 2014."

Wales won four of their last five games before Speed's death.
