FC Cape Town have appointed former Milano United head coach, Boebie Solomons, as their new technical director.

 

This post was previously held by the African Beasts’ chairman, Errol Dicks, but with the club having only picked up one second-round victory and sitting just five points from the drop zone, a decision was made to bring in the experienced Solomons.

 

The club’s COO, Daniel Perling, announced the news on Facebook saying, “Solomons joins the technical team of head coach, Johnny Ferreira, Rowan Hendricks and Johan Abselon with immediate effect. As a collective we look forward to a bright future together.”

 

However, when Soccer Laduma asked Perling about the length of Solomons’ contract, he refused to comment, referring to the matter as “confidential.”

 

An interesting aspect of this appointment is that the former Cape Town All Stars mentor will come up against Eezy my Kinnes next Sat in a vital “six pointer” as both teams fight for survival.
