Blue Eagles are set to elevate Audloy Makonyola as the club\u2019s Head Coach following the appointment of Derklerk Msakakuona as Malawi National Football Team, the Flames\u2019 Assistant Coach.<\/p>\n
The club\u2019s Chairperson, Alexander Ngwala, confirmed that the club endorsed the appointment of Msakakuona following discussions with the Football Association of Malawi (Fam).<\/p>\n
\u201cWe wish him well as he will be taking a big step in his coaching career. He will be on secondment until the end of his contract and he has our blessings,\u201d Ngwala said.<\/p>\n
The club was scheduled to meet in Lilongwe last night to decide on Makonyola\u2019s assistant.<\/p>\n
Makonyola yesterday said he was not officially communicated about his position.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the moment, I am still under his arm as an assistant coach. I will be able to comment further once communicated on the issue, but I am proud of Msakakuona for what he has achieved as a coach,\u201d the former Eagle Strikers mentor said.<\/p>\n
Fam on Wednesday announced the new Flames technical panel headed by former Azam Tigers mentor Gerald Phiri Snr on a one-year contract.<\/p>\n
Flames legend Peter Mponda was named Team Manager whereas the position of Goalkeepers\u2019 Trainer went to Philip Nyasulu.<\/p>\n
The appointment of Phiri Snr has also left Tigers without a coach with few weeks before the start of the season.<\/p>\n
Tigers Chairperson, Sydney Chikoti, was not available for his comment yesterday.<\/p>\n
Phiri on Wednesday said he would report to Tigers management about his appointment and say goodbye.<\/p>\n
Last season, Eagles finished on position four with 55 points in the Super League, six points behind champions Kamuzu Barracks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
