FORMER Warriors midfield genius Ronald “Gidiza” Sibanda has joined Dynamos as the club’s team manager to replace Harry Lusengo.

Lusengo is son of DeMbare board chairman Bernard Marriot Lusengo.

Gidiza (48) is not new to the Glamour Boys family, a team he once played for between 1998 and 1999.

He makes the great trek to the capital alongside Mark Mathe who will be the first assistant coach to Lloyd “MaBlanyo” Chigowe.

Chigowe was on Monday appointed the club’s substantive head coach.

The roping in of Mathe has been seen as a move set to bolster their coaching staff.

Mathe is a seasoned mentor with a background at Highlanders and CAPS United, to support Chigowe, as Joel Luphahla left to pursue a new opportunity with free spending Simba Bhora.

A statement by DeMbare reads: “Dynamos Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of our former midfielder Ronald “Gidiza” Sibanda as the Glamour Boys’ new Team Manager for the 2025 season. As an accomplished former professional footballer with wealth of experience, the Club believes Gidiza’s appointment will help shore up our technical team.”

The statement adds: “In the same breath, the Head Coach Lloyd “MaBlanyo” Chigowe has roped in Mark Mathe to be his First Assistant Coach.

“It is the Club’s ambition to see the Glamour Boys challenge for every title we compete for and having faith in Mathe’s experience will help us achieve our goals.

“The 49-year-old has valuable expertise having previously coached Chicken Inn, Bulawayo Chiefs, Highlanders, Harare City, CAPS United and Golden Eagles. Mathe recently left Mozambican side UD Songo FC where he was serving in a similar capacity.

“The club would like to congratulate both Gidiza and Mathe on their appointments and wish them best of luck in their new roles.”
