TOKYO, AUG 25 (AP/UNB) - The Japan Football Association has yet to find a successor for World Cup coach Takeshi Okada.

JFA technical director Hiromi Hara, who has been criticized for not signing a new coach, says he is close to finalizing a deal.

Hara went overseas to hold talks with former Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini and Olympiakos coach Ernesto Valverde, but came home empty-handed. The JFA had hoped to have a new coach signed by Aug. 15.

Japan will play Paraguay on Sept. 4 in Yokohama and Guatemala three days later in Osaka, with Hara coaching for both home friendlies.

Other candidates for the Japan job include former Mexico coach Javier Aguirre, former Netherlands coach Marco van Basten and former FC Porto coach Victor Hernandez.
