Former Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze has found a new club in Tanzania after being unveiled as the new head coach of Kagera Sugar FC.
The 45-year-old coach returns to the Tanzanian Premier League, a competition he knows well from his previous spell with Yanga SC. His latest appointment comes just weeks after his departure from Sekhukhune United.
Kaze returns to Tanzania
Kaze began the current season in charge of Sekhukhune United but had a short-lived stint at the club.
He oversaw six competitive matches, recording two victories and one draw, while suffering three defeats.
His final match came against Orlando Pirates in the second leg of the MTN8 semi-finals. Kaze was unable to take his place on the touchline after being suspended.
Now, the Burundian coach has quickly secured another opportunity, with Kagera Sugar turning to him as they look to revive their campaign.
Kagera Sugar searching for a turnaround
Kaze takes over a Kagera Sugar side that has struggled for results at the start of the Tanzanian Premier League season.
The club has gone without a win in its opening six league matches, collecting two draws and suffering four defeats.
That leaves Kaze with an immediate challenge: finding a way to turn Kagera Sugar’s fortunes around and start climbing the league standings.
His previous experience in Tanzania could prove useful as he begins his latest coaching assignment.
Another opportunity for Kaze
The move also gives Kaze an opportunity to rebuild momentum after his brief spell at Sekhukhune United.
The former Kaizer Chiefs mentor will now be expected to bring stability and results to Kagera Sugar, with supporters hoping the new coach can quickly make an impact.
Kaze’s appointment raises an interesting question about the next chapter of his coaching career: can he turn Kagera Sugar’s difficult start into a successful turnaround?
