Kabwe Warriors have settled on Zanaco legend Numba Mumamba as their next head coach to take over from George Lwandamina who has left the club to rejoin ZESCO United.
Lwandamina left the Kabwe based outfit at the start of this month to start his third stint with Zega Mambo.
According to media reports, The magnificent People’s team have since settled for the immediate past ZESCO United head coach, Numba ‘Magic’ Mumamba.
Mumamba has been clubless since October 16th when he parted ways with ZESCO United on mutual separation.
Numba joined ZESCO United in 2020 after signing a 3-year contract which saw him guide the club to a ninth league title in his first season.
However it’s at Zanaco where Magic is a true club legend as he played an instrumental role as a player in Zanaco’s first four league titles between 2002 and 2006 while the 2009 title found him as an assistant coach.
Numba, who joined Zanaco from Konkola Blades in 1999,led them to their seventh and last title to date in 2016.
He steered Zanaco to their debut Barclay’s Cup win in 2017 but it was again under his watch in the 2019/2020 season that they failed to qualify for the competition for the first time ever.
But his achievements with the club goes beyond silverware and was the first Zanaco coach to guide them to the group stage of the CAF Champions League in 2017 and second in the CAF Confederation Cup in the 2019/2020 season.
