Kenneth Malitoli coached Kalulushi Modern Stars last year, before joining the Livingstone City Council sponsored Pirates.

Meanwhile Malitoli was this afternoon expected to watch the training match between Livingstone Pirates and a Livingstone select side from which he was expected to assemble a stronger Pirates Side.

Though terms of his contract are still not clear but the former NKana Coach says he is ready to take the Southern Province based team to higher heights.
