Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Tiger Queens coach Alex Alumira will have to adapt to a new culture and build a winning team if he is to earn the trust of Tanzania Women’s Premier League stakeholders.<\/p>\n

Alumira, the former Vihiga Queens coach, became the first overseas tactician to tutor in Tanzania’s top tier league, commonly referred to as Serengeti Lite Women’s Premier League,after inking a five-year deal in August.<\/p>\n

The three-time title winner with Vihiga was courted by the newbies in what he termed as hard to turn down chance.<\/p>\n

Tiger Queens’ chief executive officer, Potin David Pello, believes Alumira is the best choice for his project if his CV is anything to go by.<\/p>\n

“It is historic moment for me to work in Tanzania. Never in the history of the Tanzania Women football has a foreign coach been hired. I am lucky to be the first one and I want to prove doubters wrong,” Alumira remarked.<\/p>\n

“It is my first time working abroad. I am also working with different nationalities, backgrounds and football cultures and It needs an amalgamated approach.”<\/p>\n

Expenses incurred in hiring an external manager has made stakeholders to trust the local coaches but Pello’s desire and a strategic plan to see Queens become a dominant force saw them break bank to acquire the services of the proven tactician .<\/p>\n

“The amount of license fees, work permits, residential permits plus paying salaries to foreigners is not a joke. Taking care of their welfare is costly but since I trust the work of Alumira, I can move heaven and earth to make him comfortable and contented,” Pello, the Tiger Queens owner intimated.<\/p>\n

Alumira is, however, seeking patience from the management to instil his philosophy into the young team before tangible success are realised.<\/p>\n

“It took Pep three years at Man City to start dominating. Klopp took around 3-4 years too yet they deal with the creme de La creme in football. My squad is very young, their average age is 20 and there’s a lot that needs to be done.”<\/p>\n

“The owner is more of a brother to me than a boss. He provides everything that I need and that’s the most important thing. I absolutely have no excuse not to deliver.”<\/p>\n

The Serengei Lite league serves of next month.<\/p>\n
