FORMER Highlanders players, Johannes Ngodzo as well as Gift Lunga junior have been roped into the Real Betis Academy Zimbabwe structures as coaches.
Ngodzo and Lunga attended the official launch of the Spanish club’s academy held in Harare on Friday. The two will work under the technical department led by former Dynamos captain Murape Murape.
Other coaches are Tichaona Diya and Philemon Mutyakureva who will take care of Harare and surrounding areas.
Gerald Sibanda, the Real Betis Academy Zimbabwe president and chief executive officer said the former Bosso players have a huge part to play in identifying talented players in the Matabeleland region.
“Johannes Ngodzo and Gift Lunga are definitely going to play a big part in ensuring that our programme is a success in the Matabeleland region. For the community of Bulawayo, Real Betis intends to continue to grow grassroots football in Bulawayo,’’ Sibanda said. — @Mdawini_29
