Zambian coach Dan Kabwe has returned to training at Silver Strikers FC after missing three consecutive TNM Super League games for the Lilongwe giants.
Kabwe did not travel with Silver to Mzuzu Stadium over the weekend when the Lilongwe giants beat Mzuzu Warriors 4-0 on Saturday before losing 1-0 to Ekwendeni Hammers the following day at the same venue.
The Zambian was also absent from the technical bench when Silver beat Karonga United 3-1 the previous week in Lilongwe.
It was the second loss for Silver under the reign of Kabwe, the former Zanaco FC and Lusaka Dynamos FC decorated coach.
Silver website has since confirmed the return of the veteran coach to the Area 47 side. No reason was given for Kabwe’s absence.
“Silver were without head coach Daniel Kabwe for the Mzuzu trip but we can now announce that Kabwe is now back and led the team training today [Monday] as the bankers had a double training session in the morning and afternoon,” reads www.silverstrikers.mw
Now, Silver face Mafco FC away in Dwangwa at Chitowe Stadium on Saturday in the lakeshore district of Nkhotakota.
Sponsored and owned by the Reserve Bank of Malawi, Silver are placed third on the 16-member Super League log table with 10 points from six games, having won thrice, lost twice and drawn once.
Mafco FC lead the table as they have 13 points from seven games, having won on the road over the weekend beating Ntopwa FC 2-0 and Be Forward Wanderers 1-0 on Saturday and Sunday respectively.
