FC Platinum has ended its agreement with head coach Joel Luphahla, replacing him with South African coach Thabo Senong, according to reports from Zimbabwean and South African outlets. The coaching change follows a period of inconsistent results for the Zvishavane-based club. New Zimbabwe reports that FC Platinum’s recent campaign has been disappointing and has left the team struggling to mount a serious challenge for the league title.
Both sources agree on the key details of the transition: Luphahla departs from his role as head coach, and Senong is appointed as his replacement. The coverage frames the move as a response to poor performance during the current season rather than a change linked to any specific off-field incident. With Senong taking over the head coaching position, FC Platinum now looks to stabilise its results as it continues the remainder of its campaign.
