On Tuesday morning, the French-Moroccan was absent from training as Ayanda Dlamini took charge of the team.
The Durban-based club has since confirmed that Dlamini has been appointed as the caretaker coach, while Folz has been moved to a technical director role.
"AmaZulu President, Sandile Zungu has announced changes to the club's head coach role with assistant coach Ayanda Dlamini appointed interim head coach, while Romain Folz has been redeployed to the role of technical director, advising the president on the technical aspects of AmaZulu's Vision 2032," confirmed AmaZulu in a statement issued by the club.
Meanwhile, the club's president confirmed that the changes begin with immediate effect until the end of the season.
"The game is result driven and with six matches to go occupying 12th position, it is clear the performance is not fitting of a club like AmaZulu Football Club. The decision we have taken is to appoint Ayanda Dlamini as caretaker coach until the end of the season. His mandate is to fight for the remaining 18 points that are on offer," said Zungu, quoted by the club.

"Dlamini has the huge task to prepare the team for the upcoming match against Cape Town City this weekend. With Folz, there are many aspects that we want to continue with from him. I have retained him as a technical director, primarily to advise the president on the technical aspects of vision 2032 until the end of the season. He will be expected not to interfere with the day to day running of the team. We thank him for his contribution to the team," concluded Zungu.
