Wazito FC players are starring at a potential sack after their boss Ricardo Badoer demanded improved results.
In a tweet on Monday, Badoer warned that he will replicate what he did with head coach Fred Ambani and technical director Stanley Okumbi if results do not improve.
“There is no need to explain this decision [to sack technical bench members] and within a day or two, our new head coach will be presented. Saying all that I need also to remind Wazito FC players to step up and bring their A-game back or else they will also be kicked out,” he tweeted.
The 2018 National Super League (NSL) champions started their maiden Kenya Premier League (KPL) season poorly and the latest lose to Kakamega Homeboyz forced management to axe the coach and technical director who had a great 2018/2019 season.
“I would like to thank coach Ambani and coach Okumbi for their great service to the club. They did a tremendous job during their time here and we wish them all the best,” Wazito FC Chief Executive Officer Dennis Gicheru said as quoted by the club's official website.
Badoer invested heavily in the team by adding more players in the squad that posted impressive results last season but this season, their form has deteriorated.
Assistant coach Hamisi Mohammed will temporarily be in charge of the team.
