Clarence Seedorf and Other 4 Coaches Sacked After Poor AFCON Results
As we wind up the Africa Cup of Nations Tournament(AFCON) 2019, many coaches are also winding up their coaching tenures with some teams including Clarence Seedorf.
The tournament has been exciting and its finally coming to an end with third place playoff being played tomorrow.
In this post I will talk about the coaches who have been relieved(polite way of saying sacked) off their duties!
The first incident of sacking began with the Egyptian coach just after they were knocked out of the tournament by South Africa.
What is fascinating about the Egyptian issue is that the FA chief sacked the coach and he also himself resigned from his position!!!
Furthermore the FA chief urged all the technical stuff to follow his lead and also resign!!
The lastest news is that Clarence Seedorf was sacked after the Cameroonian Minister of Sports, Narcisse Mouelle Kombia announced it on television!!
It is so painful to be sacked on Television, whereby the whole world gets to know maybe even before you!!
Other Coaches Relieved off Their Duties.
The Ugandan coach departure has many twists, some sources say he was sacked, others say he resigned!!!
I will with our football federation (FUFA) said and that is the coach and the federation parted ways by mutual consent.
It's facsinating to note that less than 36 hour later the former Ugandan coach Mr. Desabre Sebastien Serge was unveiled as the new coach of pyramids in Egypt!!
The other coaches who have been sacked so far are Emmanuel Amuneke who was former coach of Tanzania.
Another coach is Guinea's Paul Put, we also had Namibia’s coach Ricardo Mannetti sacked after the team lost all the three group games in the tournament.
So folks as the tournament winds up most fo these coaches will have to look for jobs somewhere else except the former Ugandan coach who got a position just immediately after Uganda was knocked out!!!
Let us wait fir today's game and see in the next days if no more coaches will lose their jobs hehehe.

Seedorf is missing too many opportunities, maybe it's not his job
Let him maybe get a club!!
yes, perhaps you are right, but already with the Milan it has failed, but I believe that first it should accumulate experience, perhaps make the vice of some other coach and then take in hand an important team, too many ex great players become coaches too soon, see Lampard which this year is likely to burn at Chelsea.
Here in Africa some coaches are not losing their jobs because they want to. Some of them resign due to the conditioned spheres at the time that is to say the policies laid unto them and more so the delayed pay from the government. This comes out from the bosses who delay the coaches' salaries over months, and yet they want them to yield a certain degree of progress to the teams they coach.
