I am happy to be appointed as Dynamo’s coach for the upcoming seasons. I am also happy to be associated with a big brand such as Dynamos.
The good thing is that I am not new to DeMbare because I spent seven years at the club during its successful period.
I am happy to be back home seven years after I left the club to further my coaching career.
I want to thank everyone for their support. I want to thank the management for having faith in me that I can take the team forward and I will try my best to bring success to this great club.
I also want to thank the previous coaches for leading the team to an impressive third-place finish.
I am looking forward to building on that going forward.
