Nkwazi have fired coach Albert Mphande and moved swiftly to replace him with Chris Kaunda.
Mphande has been fired after a poor start to the 2018 FAZ Super Division season that has seen 12th placed Nkwazi collect 7 points from six games.
His last game in charge was on Sunday when Nkwazi rallied to snatched a 1-1 away draw against promoted Kitwe United to see them collect two points in their last three games.
Mphande is the third coaching casualty in 2018 after Linos Makwaza and Gugulielmo Arena were fired over the last two weeks by Napsa Stars and Buildcon respectively.
Meanwhile, Kaunda returns for a third stint as Nkwazi coach.
Kaunda also bounces back to the top-flight just two months after he quit promoted New Monze Swallows in the midst of their 2018 pre-season preparation and barely three weeks on the job.
His first match in charge will be on Saturday at home against Nakambala Leopards.
Mmmnmm. I saw it coming. Actually am surprised he has stayed this long. Again my question is what were terms of reference of the contract. Just like ZESCO the performance of chembo was not bad. All the best coach
Sad that the ever animated and exuberant Nkwazi coach has been fired after only six games where he harvested one win,four draws and one loss. Loyalty seems to be very fickle in today’s soccer.
to me Mphande has done alot at Nkwazi, he doesn’t jst have the material to do the job for him! He has for the first time in the history of the police outfit produced players like shonga at pitrates SA, Banda now at ZESCO FC, too much influence by the officers on the administration of football! jst wish him well even as looks for a job, we know zambian coaches are jst recycled
