Johannesburg – In a surprise development in domestic soccer circles, Golden Arrows announced on Wednesday night that the club has parted with its coach, Mandla Ncikazi, fresh from finishing the PSL season at its highest ever position.
The respected Ncikazi was a contender for the coach of the season after guiding the unfancied KwaZulu Natal outfit to position four on the log.
The Lamontville based team in a terse statement said it had reached an agreement with Ncikazi to “amicably part ways.”
“We would like to thank him for his exceptional service, indifferent spells, over a 15 year period. Not only in the first team but also in the youth structures and the past, present, and future stars produced during his time,” the statement read in part.
“He leaves through an open door and like any member of the family, he is welcome back at any time. We wish him well in his future endeavours”
