JUST IN: Egyptian club, Misr El-Makasa appoints Amuneke as head coach

A former Super Eagles forward Emmanuel Amuneke has been appointed head coach of Egyptian side Misr El-Makasa.

Brila FM reports that the appointment followed the sack of Ahmed Hossam Mido.

Mido was sacked on Wednesday after losing 3-1 to Pyramids FC on Tuesday in the Egypt Premier League.

SPONSOR AD

Makasa have not won any of their last 10 league games since their last win on 17 October 2019, a 1-0 victory over Al Masry SC.

Amuneke coached Nigeria’s U17 FIFA World Cup winning team of 2015.

The 49-year-old was appointed head coach of Tanzania in 2018 where he guided them to their first Africa Cup of Nations since 1980.

Amuneke parted ways with Tanzania after a group stage exit at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

Makasa are currently lying 15th on the league table with only goals difference separating them from the relegation zone.
