AmaZulu FC Assistant Coach Learning from Pablo Franco Martin!

AmaZulu FC Assistant Coach Learning from Pablo Franco Martin! The Spaniard has already made an impression at Usuthu.

Pablo Franco Martin has begun work as the new AmaZulu FC coach. Assistant coach Siboniso Vilakazi is already benefitting from this appointment.

Vilakazi himself was also announced as the new Usuthu assistant coach by Sandile Zungu. This follows the technical team clear-out at the end of last season.

He previously coached the DSTV Diski Challenge side.

“I must say it’s very good and exciting, he’s a coach who knows what he wants,” the assistant told members of the media.

“You also look at the way he’s having his training methods. I’m learning each and every day.

“The coach opens hands for any suggestions, and we sit down and discuss.

“It makes things easier for anyone who works under him. We break down the work we must do and when we go into the training then we know probably that I’ll be dealing with the defenders and maybe he’s dealing with the attackers.

“At the end of the day, we sit down again and give feedback. But the most important thing for me is to learn from him.

“Having that experience from Real Madrid, it will really help me as an upcoming coach to grow.

“But I don’t want to lie, it’s very good working with him. He’s a very good coach, who’s willing to listen who also understands that he doesn’t know about South Africa and its players, but he’ll tell you that ‘I’m relying on you guys’ as local coaches and players as well.’

“Because even when we’re looking for those players to try and reinforce in the positions, he doesn’t know that much. The most important thing is he’s relying on us.” Vilakazi stated.

Usuthu will be hoping to improve on last season’s disappointing finish in the DSTV Premiership. AmaZulu FC Assistant Coach Learning from Pablo Franco Martin!
