FAZ National Division One side Gomes have confirmed the appointment of Mathews Ndhlovu as new head coach.
Ndhlovu, the former Indeni and Forest Rangers coach, takes over the Gomes hot seat from Sammy Phiri, who was fired recently.
“I can confirm that we have just reached an agreement with Coach Mathews Ndhlovu this morning,” said Gomes secretary Lucky Sinkala.
“We have actually introduced him to the team so he begins to work effectively this coming Monday.”
Gomes are fourth from the bottom of the table with 10 points from 11 matches played.
“The immediate job for the coach is to ensure that there is an upswing in results. We are not sitting in a position that we saw ourselves to be in at the start of the season. The immediate mandate is for the coach to get us from where we are,” said Sinkala.
Ndhlovu’s first match in charge will be against Zesco Shockers on January 9, away in Mongu.
Meanwhile, Ndhlovu will be assisted by Peter Cheupe, Simon Bwalya and Gillan Chibeka.
