Chippa United announce new coach!
Chippa United have officially announced Sinethemba Badela as their new head coach ahead of next season.
Badela joins the Chilli Boys following a season-long stint with Moroccan giants Wydad Athletic Club.
He worked as one of Rulani Mokwena's assistants at Wydad but their stint was cut short towards the end of last season.
As reported on The South African, Chippa United showed huge interest in the Sterkspruit-born mentor.
This was on the back of Thabo September's departure from the club following the conclusion of the season.
Now, Badela comes in to try and build on the foundation laid by September and his team but also bring in his philosophy.
Badela rose to prominence whilst at All Stars in the Motsepe Foundation Championship a few years ago.
He was later snapped up by Mamelodi Sundowns to coah their DStv Diski Challenge (DDC) team, thanks to Mokwena's huge influence.
