Former Mamelodi Sundowns star Peter Ndlovu has been named interim head coach of Scottland FC following the club's exit from the CAF Champions League. The appointment comes after Norman Mapeza, the previous head coach, was sacked following the team's early departure from the competition. Ndlovu, a former player for Sundowns, will now oversee the team's training and match preparations.
Scottland FC's exit from the CAF Champions League was confirmed after their failure to advance past the group stage. The club had been under Mapeza's leadership until his dismissal. Ndlovu, who has a strong reputation in South African football, is expected to provide stability during this transitional phase. The club has not yet announced a permanent coaching solution.
This marks a significant shift in Scottland FC's coaching structure. Ndlovu's appointment follows a period of instability, with Mapeza's departure coming shortly after the team's elimination. The club will now rely on Ndlovu's experience to guide the squad through the remainder of the season. The interim role is seen as a step toward long-term planning and potential future competition participation.
