Vipers are on the brink of naming George ‘Best’ Nsimbe as their new head Coach Kawowo Sports has learnt.
The soft spoken coach who is just four months old at The Saints FC is reportedly replacing Richard Wasswa who has been axed from the team’s technical bench and will be assisted by Edward Golola.
Wasswa is amongst the three people relieved of their duties by the reigning league champions in a bid to rejuvenate their technical bench. The others are Denis Kizito and kits man Emmanuel Kawalya
Nevertheless, Kawowo Sports understands that Nsimbe who was unveiled at The Saints on September 25, 2015 conducted training with the Namanve based club on Monday.
Efforts to reach him for a comment on the matter were futile as his known mobile numbers were off.
Nsimbe is still contracted to The Saints and it remains to be seen whether Vipers will pay the remaining period on his contract to have their man; a three time league winning coach with KCCA.
As usual, we shall keep you posted on the development.
