Kaitano Tembo has broken his silence following his appointment as the new Warriors head coach.
Tembo was appointed to the post on an interim basis following the resignation of Marian Marinica on Monday.
Speaking after the appointment, the coach said he is aware of the expectations and is fully committed to leading the team.
“It is a great honour and responsibility,” he said in an interview with ZIFA media. “I want to thank ZIFA for the trust they have shown in me. Having worked within the national team set-up,
“I understand the expectations and the pride that comes with leading the Warriors. I am fully committed to serving the country and building on the work that has already been done.”
On his plans for the team, Tembo called for continuity, saying:
“Continuity is very important. I have worked closely with Coach Marian Marinica and previously with Michael Nees, alongside Takesure Chiragwi.
“That understanding of the players, the systems, and the culture within the team gives us a solid foundation to move forward without disruption.”
He added: “We have a good mix of talent. There is quality in the local league, strong players based in South Africa, and others playing in the UK and beyond. Our task is to bring them together, build unity, and create a team that plays with purpose and pride.”
