Roan United chairman Charles Sakala has revealed that the Luanshya side plans to confirm Kaunda Simonda as club head coach.
Simonda, a long serving assistant coach at Roan, has been acting as head coach since the departure of Bruce Mwape who joined Konkola Mine Police in August last year.
Sakala said Roan have begun the process of promoting Simonda and his assistant Hilary Makasa.
He said the executive is so far satisfied with the peformance of the two coaches.
“We have started the process to confirm Kaunda Simonda as our head coach and Hilary Makasa as his deputy,” Sakala said.
“We are very very happy with their peformance since Bruce left last season. We hope they are going to achieve a number of things,” he added.
Simonda has served as an assistant trainer at Kafubu Stadium under coaches Paul Mulenga and Chris Chibuye as well.
Meanwhile, Roan kick off the 2014 FAZ Super League season with a Week One home match against Nchanga Rangers at Kafubu Stadium in Luanshya on Saturday.
