Tanzania Tabora United fire Kenya coaches Kimanzi and Yusuf Chipo

Tabofa United Football Club has officially parted ways with head coach Francis Kimanzi and his assistant Yusuf Chipo following a series of disappointing results in the 2024/25 NBC Tanzanian Premier League season.

The club’s management cited underperformance as the primary reason for the dismissal, which comes after eight matches in which the team accumulated only eight points. Currently, Tabora United sits in 11th place on the league table.

Kimanzi’s departure marks the sixth coaching change in the NBC Premier League this season, further highlighting the high turnover of managers in Tanzania’s top-flight football.

The tipping point for Kimanzi came after Tabora’s 4-2 defeat at the hands of JKT Tanzania, a game that saw the team suffer their heaviest loss of the season.
