Just IN: Yanga Sack Romain Folz After Shock CAF Champions League Defeat

Young Africans SC have dismissed head coach Romain Folz following their shock defeat to Silver Strikers in the CAF Champions League.

The Tanzanian champions lost 1–0 to the Malawian side in the first leg of the second preliminary round on Saturday, a result that prompted immediate action from the club’s hierarchy.

Yanga named Patrick Mabedi as the new head coach to stabilize the team before the return leg.

The move follows a slow league start, with only one win and a draw from their opening fixtures.

His tenure has been marked by unconvincing performances that have sparked growing frustration among supporters.

Romain Folz, formerly an assistant at Mamelodi Sundowns, leaves after a brief and disappointing spell in Dar es Salaam.
