Mali now joins the KwaZulu-Natal outfit as their Head of Football Strategy.

Statement:

AmaZulu Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Sinesipho Mali as the club’s new Head of Football Strategy, effective immediately.

Mali joins Usuthu after an extensive career in South African football, most recently serving within the Bafana Bafana technical set-up. His impressive résumé also includes roles with Chippa United, Kaizer Chiefs and Mthatha Bucks, where he earned a reputation for his expertise in opposition analysis, talent identification, recruitment and football strategy.

“My history with this great football club goes back many years,” he reflected.

“AmaZulu was the first club to ever give me a professional interview, when Coach Steve Barker was in charge. I also had the opportunity to work with the youth team during the 2015 Engen Champ of Champs tournament as the opposition analyst. Although we narrowly missed out on the final, those experiences have always stayed with me.

“I can genuinely say this is a move that has long been written in the stars. There have been opportunities over the years, but I’m grateful that the timing is finally right.”
