Yanga SC appoints Mkasa as caretaker coach while Mwalala is on the permanent shortlist

Young African (Yanga SC) have appointed Boniface Mkwasa as their coach on caretaker capacity after the club parted ways with Mwinyi Zahera.

The Congolese coach was shown the exit door on Tuesday, just two days after the Tanzanian club failed to reach the group stage of the Caf Confederation Cup after losing to Pyramids FC of Egypt.

With the Tanzanian giants chasing for the signature of Kenyan and Bandari FC coach Bernard Mwala, Mkasa, who played for Yanga before, has been handed the mantle on an interim basis.

“[Mkasa] will step in as we try to get a new coach who will come in on a permanent deal,” a source within the club told Goal.
