FORMER Zimbabwe international footballer George Mbwando has made a big break in his coaching career after being appointed as the new head coach of the Under-19 team at German fourth tier side VfB Eichstätt.
The new coaching role marks the return of the Germany-based 45-year-old former Blackpool and Jumbo Giants defender to football after reportedly quitting the sport to work as a technician in oil refineries in Europe two years ago.
Mbwando revealed his new coaching role in a brief statement on social media on Saturday morning.
“Back to the love of my life, the bittersweet football journey continues….new head coach for the under 19 VFB Eichstaat,” Mbwando said in a statement which was accompanied by a picture of his unveiling at the club.
