Patrick Phiri has returned to coaching following his appointment as trainer of promoted Faz Super Division club Profund Warriors.
Phiri was unveiled today in Lusaka and he will be assisted by Peter Kaumba.
Phiri has been out of a job since May last year after a successful but uneasy three seasons at Simba in Tanzania.
He replaces Wilson Mwale whose contract was not extended despite guiding Profund back to the Super Division after an 11 year absence.
Profund last played in the Super Division in 2000.
Meanwhile, Zambia has headed for Equatorial Guinea ahead of Saturdays 2012 Africa Cup kickoff when they play Senegal in their opening Group A match in Bata on January 21.
The team left Johannesburg on Tuesday afternoon for Malabo via Addis Ababa.
Zambia are expected to arrive in Bata on Wednesday afternoon where they will be based for their Group A matches.
No comments no one interested in Phiri anymore??? Zambians….
He ll soon be the care taker for the natinal team after AFCON. I dont see HR continuing after an early exit

Watch the space…Phiri and Kaumba are a very good combination based on their past records at club and National levels. With the right players Profund will be untouchable for a long time! I can see them dominating the premier league in Zambia
This year Profound Warroirs will be amongst the best three teams in the Country; PP and Kaumba let us wait and see!!!!!!
Does anyone know who the sponsor of Profund Warriors are? Just inquisitive,Iam a Kabwe Warriors fan though demoted.
@ No. 8 NAPSA sponsors the team it will now be called NAPSA Stars and not Profund Warriors.
all the best mr mathematician
Number,am a kabwe worriors supporter also.hope will bounce back to premier next season.on zambia.hoping that they can back soon so that we dont waste a lot of money.We are not going any where.sole ba zambia.
the times of 4-0 beating by Egypt on zambia are back.this time thru sengal.sole ba zambia.
I thought time had gone for Peter Kaumba to be an assistant.The man is better off being a head coach.Anyway it sounds a formidable pair and best wishes.
God be wth you Zambia do the best you can 4 the country. It’s true, the secret “Donchi Kubeba”
patp and toshack, phew! what a combination. watch out for profound this season as they will be a force to reckon with.
