Former Warriors Captain Willard Katsande Eyes Coaching Role for Warriors and Kaizer Chiefs

Former Warriors captain, Willard Katsande, has set his sights on coaching South African Premiership club Kaizer Chiefs and leading Zimbabwe’s senior men’s football team, following his retirement from professional play in 2022.

Currently involved in Crystal Lake’s technical staff within South Africa’s SAB league, Willard Katsande expressed his ambitions on #Marawa Sports Worldwide, hosted by esteemed sportscaster Robert Marawa

Katsande expressed his goals in the interview, saying, “Yeah, I still want to coach the Warriors and Kaizer Chiefs very soon.” After I finish my coaching certification, I’m going to knock on doors. With a CAF D licence in hand and plans to work for a CAF C qualification in June, Katsande stressed the need to take his time in his coaching career, saying, “I’m not in a hurry to sit on the Kaizer Chiefs technical bench.” In four years, I believe I’ll not only be the team’s leader but also a trophy winner. I’m going to attempt to alter the perception of Kaizer Chiefs among the public.
