Young Africans unveil Pedro Goncalves as new head coach

Young Africans unveil Pedro Goncalves as new head coach

The Portuguese coach joins the club as a replacement for the sacked Romain Folz, who only joined the club at the start of the current Tanzanian Premier League season.

Folz guided the club to the Community Shield title at the beginning of the campaign and also guided his side to the Second preliminary round of the CAF Champions League.

But he was let go following their second round first leg 1-0 loss to Malawian outfit Silver Strikers, with assistant Patrick Mabedi left in temporary charge.

The former Kaizer Chiefs coach guided Yanga into the CAF Champions League group stages on Saturday.

Goncalves, who was most recently head coach of Angola has since been appointed and will take charge for the Tanzanian Premier League clash for the first time against Mitbwa Sugar on Wednesday.
