Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Ahead of the COSAFA Senior Challenge in June, senior national team Sihlangu Semnikati is expected to have an assistant coach.<\/b><\/p>\n

The annual regional soccer showpiece starts on June 4, as exclusively reported by this publication last week.<\/p>\n

However, the head coach of the senior squad, Croatian Zdravko Logarusic, has played the last two internationals against Cameroon and Mauritius without a complete technical bench and interim staff as well.<\/p>\n

It has since emerged that former Mbabane Highlanders head coach Milton Dlamini was the latest candidate among a handful others recommended to the Eswatini Football Association (EFA) by Logarusic.<\/p>\n

Currently away at home in Croatia, Logarusic is said to have received Dlamini\u2019s Curriculum Vitae (CV) most recently and got impressed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are few names I recommended to the EFA from the local league and Dlamini is the latest that I got a CV from but it\u2019s with the EFA CEO as per your source,\u201d responded Logarusic upon hearing the news had leaked.<\/p>\n

Milton Dlamini<\/p>\n

He said it was up to the EFA to give him the assistant among the names he recommended.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the source revealed that Dlamini was the head coach\u2019s favourite after his CV proved just right for the assistant coach position.<\/p>\n

This, Logarusic, according to the source, informed the EFA Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Frederick Mngomezulu.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on his CV, he looks correct for the position,\u201d Logarusic could only say in his response.<\/p>\n

The gaffer is currently working with Anthony Mdluli as interim goalkeeper coach but without an assistant. He expects both positions to be filled, hopefully ahead of the COSAFA Cup 2025.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s edition is billed for Bloemfontein in South Africa (SA) in the Free State. Meanwhile, there was no immediate comment from EFA Marketing and Communications Officer Muzi Radebe.<\/p>\n
