Insider Confirms AmaZulu Plans For Folz & Contract Situation

Insider Confirms AmaZulu Plans For Folz & Contract Situation

Romain Folz as the coach of AmaZulu FC during the DStv Premiership 2022/23 match between Richards Bay and AmaZulu held at King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium in Durban on 29 January 2023

An insider at AmaZulu has revealed big plans for Romain Folz and the team as the KwaZulu-Natal giants are aiming for bigger and better things under ambitious club president Sandile Zungu. 

As part of the Durban-based club's Vision 2032 to make Usuthu a force to be reckoned with in the local game and a recognised top four side, a decision has been reached for a technical team reshuffle with Ayanda Dlamini having taken over the coaching reins on a caretaker basis, while Romain Folz has moved into the position of technical director.

With the new position, Folz has become the youngest technical director in the history of the PSL, having previously been the youngest head coach in the league.
