Srikoed’s hiring was announced on the team’s TV show on local channel 8. He is expected to oversee the team’s final six games of the season.
In 2011, Srikoed helped lead a struggling Phattalung FC side get promoted to the Yamaha League 1. His career as a player has included stints at Buriram FC, Phattalung FC, and Rangsit FC.
Now in 13th place in the table, Phuket FC are only one spot away from the relegation zone with six games left to play. The Islanders will take on third place Sri Racha Suzuki FC this Sunday, a team they lost to 4-1 back in April.
