The Zimbabwe Football Association Normalisation Committee is currently in the process of trying to persuade Kalisto Pasuwa to return as the Warriors coach for Nyasa Big Bullets. This move is a part of a larger plan to form a dream technical team that would also include Norman Mapeza and Takesure Chiragwi as his assistants. Despite ZIFA’s attempts to court Pasuwa back, he has shown reluctance to take on the role once again, and has expressed reservations about ZIFA choosing his assistants for him.
The urgency to appoint a coach for the Warriors stems from the upcoming four-nation tournament in Malawi, which will take place during the international break later this month. This tournament will also feature teams from Zambia and Kenya, making it a crucial opportunity for the Warriors to showcase their talent. With Brito’s contract not being renewed at the end of December, the Warriors find themselves without a coach. Mapeza is being considered as ZIFA’s second option, with Chiragwi being earmarked for the U23 job.
In a surprising turn of events, Warriors legend Bruce Grobbelaar has thrown his hat into the ring as a potential candidate for the coaching position. During an interview on ZiFM radio, Grobbelaar expressed his desire to once again coach the Warriors. This unexpected development adds an interesting twist to the search for a new coach, and could potentially shake up the decision-making process for ZIFA.
Overall, the search for a new coach for the Warriors is a critical task that the Zimbabwe Football Association Normalisation Committee is currently undertaking. The outcome of this decision will have a significant impact on the future of the national team, especially as they prepare for important tournaments and competitions in the coming months. It remains to be seen whether Pasuwa will ultimately agree to return as the Warriors coach, or if another candidate such as Grobbelaar will be brought in to lead the team. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining the direction of the Warriors’ coaching staff, and fans will be eagerly awaiting updates on this developing story.
