Struggling FAZ Super Division side Kitwe United have fired coach Steven Mwansa after a poor start to the new season.
Promoted Kitwe United are bottom of the 18-team table with four points from 10 matches played.
Club media officer Nelly Nkolongo said assistant coach George Phiri will be interim head coach until further notice.
“Kitwe United Football Club has terminated the employment contract of its Head Coach Steven Mwansa with effect from December 31, 2020. In the meantime, Phiri has been appointed caretaker coach until the position is substantively filled,” Nkolongo said.
“It is hoped that the changes made will help steer the Club to greater heights as it aspires to retain its position in the ongoing Zambia’s 2020/2021 FAZ/MTN Super Division,” she stated.
Promoted Chingalika have posted six losses and four draws.
