Dlamini steps down as AmaZulu head coach
AmaZulu has confirmed that Ayanda Dlamini has stepped down from his role as head coach at the DSTV Premiership club.
The club made the announcement on Monday afternoon.
Dlamini stepped in as interim coach after Jozef Vukusic was sacked in February and was subsequently appointed on a permanent basis by the club in September.
“AmaZulu Football Club would like to officially announce that coach Ayanda Dlamini has voluntary stepped down from his head coaching duties with immediate effect and will be re-assigned to the role of coach within the club’s development ranks,” AmaZulu said in a statement.
“Assistant coach Allan Freese will step in as interim head coach of Usuthu while the club’s management evaluate a way forward. Coach Ayanda Dlamini stepped into the head coaching role back in February 2020 and did a sterling job in ensuring the survival of AmaZulu FC in the topflight of South African football.”
The club’s president Sandile Zungu says Dlamini will be re-assigned to the development structures at the club.
“We will continue to trust him with the advancement of our development structures because he is fully committed to Vision 2032. His role is very integral in ensuring that AmaZulu have a solid base of young players coming through the ranks.”
Next up for Usuthu is a derby against Golden Arrows on December 16.
The club is expected to unveil a new coach in due course.
