FORMER Castle Lager Premier Soccer League outfit Bulawayo Chiefs believe veteran coach Maxwell Takaendesa Jongwe is the right man to revive the NInjas.
Chiefs were relegated to the ZIFA Southern Region Division One League at the end of last season before they parted ways with their then coach Thulani “Tuts” Sibanda.
Sibanda is heavily tipped with a move to Highlanders’ development side.
Last season, the tried-and-tested Jongwe was with Chegutu Pirates who were also relegated from the local elite football league following a one-year dance.
“Bulawayo Chiefs FC is pleased to announce the appointment of Maxwell Takaendesa Jongwe to the position of senior team head coach.
“Takaendesa holds a CAF A diploma and has vast knowledge in coaching as he has been a coaching instructor,” said Amakhosi Amahle in a statement.
They added:
“With his experience, passion and dedication to the sport, we are confident that Takaendesa will be a great asset to our team, helping us achieve our goals.”
Jongwe has also coached CAPS United, Yadah and the now defunct Monomotapa.
The well-traveled Jongwe was also the ZIFA technical director until his departure from the post in 2014.
