A lot of Dynamos fans are still divided after head coach Genesis Mangombe resigned following a crisis meeting held on Monday. However, some reports are indicating that Mangombe was sacked from his coaching role.

The former Dynamos coach, joined Scott Sakupwanya’s club named Scottland as the head coach there. The club competes in the Harare region Division One league.

 

Dynamos, populary “Chazunguza” or “Dembare” appointed Mangombe on 9 August 2023 to succeed Herbert Maruwa, whom the club had chucked out due to poor performances.

 

In a statement released on Monday by Dynamos’ executive chairperson, Moses Maunganidze, confirmed the development:

 

“We wish to advise all our stakeholders that the club has gracefully accepted the resignation of Genesis Mangombe as head coach of Dynamos Football Club with immediate effect. We want to thank Mr Mangombe for the services he rendered to the club and for all the achievements the club attained during his tenure.

 

“While the transition may be difficult to some, the club shall always uphold in high esteem his key competencies and good workmanship. We wish him well in his future opportunities.”

 

The sacked coaches’ tenure at Dynamos has been lacklustre. However, despite his inconsistency, Mangombe won the Chibuku Super Cup and took the club back to continental football.

 

In 22 Castle Lager Premiership games, he has won 6 only, drew 12, and lost 4. Following Sunday’s draw against Bulawayo Chiefs, Dynamos is currently seventh with 30 points, 13 off log leaders Simba Bhora. The club has only scored 19 times in 22 outings.
