GREEN FUEL coach Taurai Mangwiro has outlined his ambitious plans to transform the club into a competitive outfit this season.
GreenFuel will face CAPS United, Ngezi Platinum, Highlanders, Bikita Minerals, and Yadah in their opening five matches.
“We observed that our conversion rate was poor on the road and we hope to improve on that,” Mangwiro said.
“We want to ensure that we finish in a better position on the log as we were in a precarious position for most of last season.”
To address these issues, Mangwiro has made significant additions to the squad, bringing in a mix of experienced players and promising young talent.
Among the new signings are the Chikwende brothers, Perfect and Emmanuel, who are expected to add to the team’s attack.
Ronald Chitiyo has joined the club from Nyasa Bullets of Malawi, alongside Marlon Mushonga from Yadah.
They recruited three goalkeepers — Frank Kuchinei, Ashley Rayners, and Victor Machopa from Bikita Minerals, as well as two young local players who impressed during trials.
“We look stable with the old guard as well as the recruits. We hope we now have a team that can compete, and let’s just hope for the best.
“In our opening matches, three are at home and two are on the road.
“None of the games look easy. We have to be at our best to get points. We don’t want to undermine our opponents but we want to give our all and pick up points to avoid pressure from the start.”
