FORMER FC Platinum Coach Norman Mapeza has been unveiled as the new head coach at newly crowned Premier Soccer League champions Scottland.
Mapeza’s appointment comes barely a day after Tonderai Ndiraya left Scottland.
Ironically, Mapeza waved goodbye to FC Platinum on Sunday, after a decade-long, trophy-laden stay in Zvishavane.
The former Warriors captain and coach signed a two-year contract on Thursday afternoon.
Mapeza has rare continental pedigree, having guided Monomotapa and FC Platinum to the group stages of the CAF Champions League, a milestone that has been achieved by very few coaches.
That track record fits into Scottland’s next chapter, as they prepare for their debut continental campaign in the CAF Champions League.
