Mamelodi Sundowns veteran Kennedy Mweene will venture into goalkeeper coaching when his playing days end.
The 38-year-old former Zambian international recently stepped into the coaching role in the absence of suspended goalkeeper coach Wendell Robinson and he said he enjoyed working with his teammates in that capacity.“Coach Wendell was suspended, so I was asked by coach Rulani Mokwena to help and that’s something that I did,” said Mweena during the Nedbank Cup last 16 draw in which they were pitted against Marumo Gallants in a repeat of last year’s final.
“I enjoyed working as goalkeeper coach with the guys. When this opportunity was presented I grabbed it with both hands. It is something which came my way, my colleagues were making a bit of fun of me. “As players, when we retire we want to be head coaches or assistant coaches, and we forget that we have a lot of experience that we can give back to up-and-coming goalkeepers.
