*AmaZulu appoint Arthur Zwane and Vusumuzi Vilakazi as joint-coaches*

Arthur Zwane has joined AmaZulu to work with Vusumuzi Vilakazi as co-coaches.

AmaZulu have made a surprise move by appointing Arthur Zwane to work with Vusumuzi Vilakazi as co-coaches.

Zwane is no stranger to coaching in the DStv Premiership having been in charge of Kaizer Chiefs during an ill-fated reign the 2022-23 season. He has been working in the junior structures at Naturena, where he also served before his head coaching stint and being Chiefs' assistant coach from 2021.

Vilakazi has coached Lamontville Golden Arrows, Chippa United and recently Richards Bay. He joined AmaZulu as head coach of their DStv Diski Challenge (DDC) team for this season in August.

The appointments were confirmed by AmaZulu president Sandile Zungu who expressed confidence in the pair's ability to lead the team through the challenges of the Betway Premiership.

“Their combined experience as both coaches and former professional players will be crucial in developing our younger talents and guiding our seasoned players in the task ahead, ” said Zungu.

Zwane, a product of Jomo Cosmos, was a long-time winger at Chiefs where he played almost 200 matches between 2000 and 2010. Vilakazi was an attacker for Arrows from 2006 to 2014.

The duo replace Spaniard Pablo Franco Martin and his assistant Aitor Van Den Brule, who left AmaZulu last week after a poor start to the season where the club lost its opening three matches to Polokwane City, Chiefs and Marumo Gallants.

Chelsea and Forest charged for failing to control players - Published Chelsea and Nottingham Forest have been charged by the Football Association for failing to control their players after a mass confrontation during Sunday's Premier League game at Stamford Bridge. However, no action will be taken against Nicolas Jackson after the Chelsea forward appeared to slap, external Forest's Morato, as players from both sides clashed towards the end of the match, which ended 1-1. Tempers had flared after Forest's Neco Williams had appeared to push defender Marc Cucurella off the pitch. The incident involving Jackson and Morato was reviewed by the video assistant referee at the time. "It's alleged that both clubs failed to ensure their players didn’t behave in an improper and/or provocative way around the 88th minute," the FA said in a statement. Both clubs have until Thursday to respond to the charge. Three players were booked following the clash - Williams for Forest and Cucurella and Levi Colwill for Chelsea. A total of six players were booked for the Blues throughout the match, meaning they are the subject of an automatic £50,000 fine after accumulating six or more bookings for the second time this season.
