Former Head Coach of Tanzania national team Emmanuel Amuneke has revealed that he’s ready to return to management again.
Amuneke was released from his position as the gaffer of Taifa Stars after their abysmal performance at the 2019 African Cup of Nations in Egypt.
Although the former Nigerian international qualified the East African Nations for their first AFCON appearance for the first time since 1980, but it wasn’t enough to keep him in the job.
Months after staying away from the game that gave him so much fame and fortune, the 1994 AFCON winner has now revealed his desire to start a new chapter in his coaching career.
“I’m very open to any positive offer that comes because I’ve spent the last few weeks learning new ideas and methods,”
“As a manager, you need to be honest with yourself and even though Tanzania is a closed chapter, I picked up valuable lessons from that job.
“I want a fresh start and it has to be something that is right, and hopefully the ambition will align with mine.” He said.
The FIFA U-17 World Cup-winning coach, however, distance himself from reports linking him to a job with the Nigerian Football Federation sooner.
“We must respect those who currently hold coaching posts in Nigeria and elsewhere. Personally, I am just looking forward to the next challenge with optimism,”
“Whether it is in Africa or anywhere that something comes up, you need to be available for it if it’s something you want to do and believe in.” Amuneke concluded.
