    Rumers have been around late last Friday that the CFA and Camacho had reached an agreement to part ways, saying the two sides were yet to settle on the severance package.

    According to the deal between the CFA and Camacho, the sack could lead to a penalty pay of about 3 million euros.

    The Spaniard was appointed in 2011 with a reported 2.8 million euros-per-year contract that should expire in August, 2014 till the Brazil World Cup.

    Under camacho, China claimed a 7-2-11 record out of 20 outings. In the latest FIFA rankings, the former Asian Cup runners-up were in the 95th position, slightly up from an historically low of 109th in last March.
