Just after reporting that George ‘Best’ Nsimbe could soon be kicked out of Azam FC, he has confirmed his sacking.
The former KCCA FC head tactician has been shown the exit less than a year after joining the club on a two year contract in the capacity of assistant coach to Cameroon national John Omog who was sacked before the end of the 2014/2015 season.
Omog’s sacking paved way for Nsimbe to be named as the head coach for the CECAFA Kagame Cup defending champions. He guided the club to finishing second on the league table behind winners Yanga.
He was however replaced by Stewart Hall whose reign came with new changes that have failed to accommodate the iconic George ‘Best’ Nsimbe.
“It’s true. I was relieved of my duties at Azam,” Nsimbe confirmed to Airtel Football. “The new coach (Stewart Hall) said he has his assistants and so the management terminated my contract.”
The three league title winner while at the Lugogo based camp, KCCA also revealed that he is available for any job at the moment. “I have no attachment now. My contract has been duly paid after termination and am now available to whoever is willing to offer me a coaching job,” he revealed.
