Mamelodi Sundowns have appointed former AmaZulu head coach Romain Folz as an assistant coach.
Manqoba Mngithi is now head coach of the perennial DStv Premiership title-winners after the dismissal of Rulani Mokwena and now Folz joins Mngqithi’s backroom staff comprising of Steve Komphela, Wendell Robinson and Kennedy Mweene.
“Mamelodi Sundowns has appointed Romain Folz as an Assistant Coach in the first team and joins Manqoba Mngqithi, Steve Komphela, Wendell Robinson and Kennedy Mweene in the Technical Department,” Sundowns said in a statement.
“Romain joins the 2023/24 Champions from FIFA’s High-Performance Department where he worked on the development of football. Folz who holds a UEFA Pro License has previously worked in South Africa and across Africa in Guinea, Botswana, and Ghana.
“Mamelodi Sundowns players and Technical Team have warmly received Romain into the camp in Austria where they are on a pre-season camp.
“The Club will play more competitive matches in the next few days as part of the ongoing pre-season preparations.”
