FOOTBALL AFC Leopards: Five things new coach Tomas Trucha needs to sort out to bring Ingwe back to life
Pulse Sports lists the five major things new AFC Leopards head coach Tomas Trucha will have to address if he is to be successful at the club
The tactician is aiming to revive Leopards who are going through a turbulent time following their winless start to the 2023-34 FKF Premier League season that has left them second from bottom on the 18-team log with just four points.
Trucha is not new to Leopards, having coached them between November and December 2020 before he quit, citing threats to his life after just one game in charge.
He will therefore need to start winning matches if he wants a longer stay at the den given the supporters were not ready to give Juma time, with calls for his sacking starting as early as matchday three.
Leopards will play away to Bandari on Sunday when the new coach’s tactics will be put to test with hope that his second coming will bring success.
Ingwe’s confidence levels are low following the disappointing run of form but will need to rise to the occasion quickly to avoid being dragged into a relegation battle after their huge outlay on new players in the offseason.
