Roan United Chairperson Pearson Mwale has revealed that club caretaker coach Kaunda Simonda will not be considered for the vacant top job at Kafubu Stadium.
Roan have launched a search for a new coach after sacking Chris Chibuye last Thursday.
Mwale said the club executive is looking for a more experienced trainer to take over the mantle from sacked Chibuye.
“No,these (Kaunda and Hilary Makasa) will be assistant coaches, we are looking for a head coach who is experienced. We are developing Mr. Simonda into a head coach and we have even brought in Hilary just to train him to be a coach,” he said.
Kaunda, a long serving assistant coach at Roan, is currently in charge of the Luanshya side alongside ex-Chipolopolo defender Makasa who joined the bench last Friday.
Mwale added that the club has started receiving applications for the coaching role.
“We are receiving some applications, once we get four to five credible applications then we will call them for interviews,” he stated
Indeed an experienced trainer should be found as soon as possible. I just hope Simonda has been receiving the necessary training over the period he has been assistant.
Give Simonda the chance ba kabwa imwe. he started well drawing 1 all against Power90 away. what more do you want. u should have held your fire and give him MORE time.
Ba Pearson Mwale ( I know you in person and i know you know me), esheniko ba Knight Mpumpu he’s been in the Coaching business for a long while, he has the experience.
