Chippa United Appoint Morgan Mammila as First-Ever Football Sporting Director
Chippa United have confirmed a new chapter in their football operations with the appointment of Morgan Mammila as their first-ever Football Sporting Director. The move comes as part of the club’s broader efforts to strengthen its technical structures and long-term development strategy.
Mammila’s Return and Reintegration
Mammila quietly rejoined Chippa United last month after spending time away from the game. His reintegration into the club’s environment was carefully managed, leading to the formalization of his appointment.
“The decision to formalise his appointment was made after thorough evaluation, ensuring that he is well-equipped to lead Chippa’s sporting operations moving forward,” the club stated.
Key Responsibilities in His New Role
As Sporting Director, Mammila will oversee key aspects of Chippa United’s football operations, including:
- Technical team oversight: Ensuring alignment within the coaching staff and footballing philosophy.
- Player recruitment: Strengthening squad depth and bringing in talent that fits the club’s vision.
- Youth and reserve team development: Creating a clear pathway for young players to progress into the senior team.
The Chilli Boys are keen on improving their development structures to ensure long-term competitiveness, and Mammila’s appointment is seen as a crucial step in achieving this goal.
Coaching Setup Remains Intact
Despite the changes at the administrative level, Chippa United have confirmed that Thabo September will continue as head coach, with Mabhuti Khenyeza serving as his assistant. The club’s leadership believes that this structure, combined with Mammila’s role, will provide stability and a clearer vision for the team’s future.
With this new appointment, Chippa United are signaling their intent to build a more sustainable footballing model, one that prioritizes long-term success through well-structured development and strategic planning.
