Gordon Tietjens' coaching future could be revealed on Tuesday morning.

The future of New Zealand Sevens coach Gordon Tietjens is about to be revealed.

New Zealand Rugby have called a press conference for Tuesday morning in Wellington, with chief executive Steve Tew and Sir Gordon Tietjens in attendance.

Tietjens' contract with New Zealand Rugby was up after the Rio Olympic Games, in which the New Zealand men finished fifth and failed to win a medal. The 60-year-old has led the national side since 1994.

MARTY MELVILLE/PHOTOSPORT The men's sevens team had a disappointing Rio Olympics, with Sonny Bill Williams injured in the opening game and the team failing to win a medal.

It comes on the back of a difficult 12 months for the national side.

The squad won three of 10 World Rugby Sevens Series events in the 2015-16 season, but finished third in the series as inconsistency saw their campaign struggle.

Injuries were a big part of that, with Tietjens previously stating he faced the worst injury toll in his career.

The injury toll didn't halt in Rio, either, with Sonny Bill Williams, Scott Curry and Joe Webber all falling to injury.

A review into the failed Rio Olympic campaign is yet to be completed.
