Former Ngezi Platinum Stars head coach Benjani Mwaruwari has reportedly filed a claim of US$1.6 million against the club with FIFA for unfair dismissal.
This development follows FIFA’s order for the reigning Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions to compensate their former assistant coach, Bongani Mafu, nearly US$200,000.
Mafu served as Benjani’s assistant at Ngezi when both were dismissed just months after joining the Mhondoro-based club.
Mafu was Benjani’s assistant at Ngezi when they were sacked a few months after they arrived at the club. <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/ngezi-faces-benjanis-us1-6m-mega-storm-it-could-be-the-biggest-such-payout-in-football-in-southern-africa-fifas-decision-for-mafu-to-be-paid-likely-to-act-as-a-precedent/">H-Metro</a> quoted a source as saying:
<blockquote>
The real storm is the one that is set to come after the conclusion of Benjani’s claims and that is coming soon.
That is a huge figure we are talking about and it all comes to around US$1.6 million and if he gets everything that he has asked for then it could be the biggest payout in Southern Africa in such a football case.
You can say that a precedent was set when Mafu won his case and both Mafu and Benjani are using the same agent who appears to have very good knowledge of such cases.
It’s an interesting time for Zimbabwe football because I’m so sure that soon we will also hear the likes of Sunday (Chidzambwa), Norman (Mapeza) and Pasuwa also coming up with their claims against ZIFA over unpaid dues.
</blockquote>
The agent is Ndaba Nyathi, who is based in Finland.
Another former Ngezi assistant coach, Cosmas Zulu, has also been reported to be filing a claim for unfair dismissal. Said Zulu:
<blockquote>
Mafu tried his best to bring the club to the round table in an attempt to arrive at a compromise.
By the principle of pacta sunt servanda (agreements must be kept), but it was all in vain.
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, Ngezi Platinum Stars were given until last week to appeal the FIFA ruling, or they would face a two-year transfer ban, effective until the second transfer window of 2026 if they fail to pay the full amount within 45 days.
FIFA documents sent to the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA), the Confederation of African Football (CAF), and Mafu’s representatives confirm that the decision was made on August 27, with notifications sent to all parties three days later.

Benjani Mwaruwari, a former coach of Ngezi Platinum Stars, is claiming $1.6 million for being unfairly dismissed. His assistant coach, Bongani Mafu, already won a case against the club for $200,000. They both may get big payouts. Another assistant coach, Cosmas Zulu, is also filing a claim. Ngezi Platinum Stars must pay or face a two-year transfer ban. The decision was made by FIFA in August. The agents for the coaches are helping them with the claims. It might set a precedent for other coaches to claim unpaid dues.

Mwaruwari Files US$1.6 Million Unfair Dismissal Claim Against Ngezi Platinum Stars | Report

Former Manchester City striker and Warriors captain Benjani Mwaruwari is working with English Championship side Plymouth Argyle’s juniors to improve his coaching skills.
The former Ngezi Platinum Stars coach is attached at Plymouth Argyle Academy as part of the Premier League player-to-coach initiative.
Mwaruwari recently <a href="https://x.com/PAFCAcademy/status/1770163333326332295">told the club’s media</a> that his love and passion for football drove him into coaching. He said:
<blockquote>
I enrolled in the players to coaches scheme, which looks after former players interested in coaching.
So, I am here trying to improve my coaching skills. When you are playing sometimes you do not know what you are going to do after you stop.
But when you keep watching the game and you have that love and passion you want to be involved, so that is what happened to me.
It has been great I have been here for four months with people around the coaches and players it has been so good.
I have been working with the Under 18 strikers, and they have been performing so well, hopefully, I will give them something and they will give me something.
I have been with all age groups from the Under 13s helping out some coaches here.
</blockquote>
The Undertaker completed his UEFA A coaching licence in 2021. He was in the same class with ex-professional footballers Christopher Samba and Mark Hughes.
Mwaruwari coached Portsmouth’s under-16s whilst he was doing the UEFA badges. He assisted Shaun North in coaching sessions on a twice-weekly basis to meet Uefa A licence criteria.
He was at Portsmouth FC for more than six weeks, enabling him to fulfil the requirements of 40 hours of practical work.
Mwaruwari was appointed Ngezi Platinum Stars’ head coach on a three-year deal in March 2022. He was, however,  fired on 25 July 2022 after presiding over 13 matches.

Benjani Mwaruwari Gets Coaching Job At English Club

Benjani Jnr, the son of former Manchester City and Zimbabwe international striker <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Benjani_Mwaruwari">Benjani Mwaruwari</a> has signed his first professional contract with English 5-tier side Yeovil Town.
The 17-year-old forward had an impressive season with Yeovil Town’s Under 18 side.
He joined the club last year after not being offered a scholarship by his dad’s former club Portsmouth, who are now plying their trade in the 3rd-tier League One.
Since his arrival at Yeovil Town, Benjani Jnr has become something of a goal machine which has resulted in him becoming the team’s third professional player in three years to come from within.
In a statement on their <a href="https://www.ytfc.net/contract-benjani-jr-signs-professional-terms-with-yeovil-town/">official website</a>, Yeovil Town said they are excited to agree on pro-terms with Benjani Jr after his impressive stint since his arrival at the National League side. The club said:
<blockquote>
Yeovil Town are delighted to announce that Benjani Jr has signed professional terms with the Club. Arriving from Portsmouth in January 2020, the youngster made an instant impression, playing up a year group in the EFL Youth Alliance League.
With the 17-year-old signing his first professional contract, it means an Under-18 player has signed professional terms with Yeovil Town for the third season in a row, continuing the previous success of Ollie Haste &amp; Toby Stephens.
Following in the footsteps of his father, who was also a professional footballer for the likes of Manchester City, Portsmouth &amp; Auxerre, Benjani Jr now makes his first steps in the professional game.
</blockquote>
Last season, the young forward scored 25 goals and managed 16 assists in 30 games for the Under-18 side.
He was also the top scorer as the Under 18’s won the national college seven-a-side tournament. He also enjoyed involvement with the first team, making his Somerset Premier Cup debut as a substitute.
Yeovil Town manager Chris Hargreaves commented said Benjani Jr will continue to play for Matt Percival’s Under-18 side and train with the first team on a regular basis.

Benjani Mwaruwari's Son Signs Professional Contract In England

Warriors and Bournemouth FC defender <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Jordan_Zemura">Jordan Zemura</a> has made his English Premier League (EPL) debut after being included in Bournemouth’s squad for their opening league match of the 2022/23 season.
Zemura who was with the Warriors at the most recent Africa Cup of Nations was named in the first XI against <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Marvelous_Nakamba">Marvelous Nakamba</a>‘s Aston Villa. Nakamba was not part of Villa’s team, he was not even on the bench.
Zemura follows in the footsteps of the likes of <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Peter_Ndlovu">Peter Ndlovu</a> (Coventry City), <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Bruce_Grobbelaar">Bruce Grobbelaar</a> (Liverpool), <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Benjani_Mwaruwari">Benjani Mwaruwari</a> (Manchester City) and Nakamba, the only Zimbabwean players to play in the EPL.
Bournemouth won the match 2 – 0, thanks to goals from Jefferson Lerma 2′ and Kieffer Moore 80′.
Bournemouth’s first ever Premier League game in August 2015 was a 1-0 home defeat to Aston Villa – they’ve won all three of their league meetings with the Villans since then, each by a 2-1 scoreline. 
  
Meanwhile, Aston Villa won just once on the five previous occasions they’ve kicked off a Premier League campaign against a promoted side (D1 L3), though that victory did come at Bournemouth in 2015-16. 
  
Gerrard started two of his new signings, with Carlos and Kamara in the first XI, alongside Coutinho who made his loan signing a permanent deal in the summer from Barcelona. Ings was ahead of Watkins who started on the bench.

Warriors And Bournemouth Defender Jordan Zemura Makes EPL Debut

Dynamos coach Tonderai Ndiraya has sympathised with three Castle Lager Premier Soccer League coaches who lost their jobs this week.
Benjani Mwaruwari was sacked by Ngezi Platinum Stars on Monday, Herbert Maruwa was fired by Black Rhinos on Wednesday and Tenax CS parted ways with Shadreck Mugurasave on Thursday. Said Ndiraya:
<blockquote>
We always feel for each other when something like this happens.
… There is no one who gets excited when another coach is fired, we feel for the coaches who have lost their jobs.
We just wish them well and hopefully, they can quickly get back to it again.
I feel for my colleagues and wish they can get comfort in that wherever they were, they did the best that they could and hopefully, that was noticed and they can quickly get back to work.
</blockquote>
In total, 14 head coaches and assistant coaches have been fired by their clubs this season alone.
Ndiraya believes that coaches do not get all the support they need from their clubs yet they are made scapegoats when good results become elusive. He said:
<blockquote>
If you look at the environment that we are working in, naturally you would want to have time.
Time to build your team and at the same time you want maximum support from the management for you to succeed.
But in most cases, we don’t get full support in terms of the provision of resources to really do our job.
Sometimes coaches do cover up some things which are supposed to be done by the other part.
But in the end, we are judged by results and sometimes people don’t know how those results come about.
Sometimes it’s the coaches who sacrifice for those results so it hurts (when a coach is fired).
</blockquote>
Ndiraya was himself on the brink of losing his job a few weeks ago following his week-long suspension.
A draw against log leaders FC Platinum a fortnight ago and a 3-0 win over second-placed Chicken Inn last week have given Ndiraya some respite.

Tonderai Ndiraya Sympathises With Recently Fired Coaches

Former Ngezi Platinum Stars coach Benjani Mwaruwari may get a US$440 000 severance package from his former paymasters following his sacking on Monday.
When Benjani was appointed Ngezi coach in March this year, reports indicated that he penned a four-year deal and was guaranteed a salary of about US$10 000 a month.
If it was true that “The Undertaker” indeed signed a four-year deal, and he was getting US$10 000 a month, it means he will be paid US$440 000.
In football, when a coach is fired, the club has to fully pay off the remainder of his or her contract, unless the coach failed to fulfil what was agreed to in the deal.
H-Metro reported sources as saying Benjani signed a “standard” deal, “which is like what is seen in the professional leagues of Europe.” Added the source:
<blockquote>
This means he is entitled to payment for the remainder of his contract.
If he had signed a three-year deal, it means he will have to be paid a US$320 000 severance package.
In the event he entered into a two-year contract, it means he will be paid about US$200 000 in the golden handshake.
</blockquote>
Ngezi Platinum Stars announced on Monday that they had parted ways with Benjani after results were not what they expected.
Benjani presided over 13 games, in which he registered three wins, six draws and four losses.
He was fired alongside his first assistant coach Bongani Mafu.

Ngezi Platinum Sack Coach Benjani Mwaruwari

Former Warriors skipper Benjani Mwaruwari has been cleared by the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) to head Ngezi Platinum Stars’ technical department following his appointment by the club this week.
Mwaruwari does not hold the requisite Confederation Of African Football (CAF) A coaching badge and since he has the UEFA A licence, he needed to get a waiver from the national association.
It’s the former Manchester City striker’s first big job for a local club in the country having briefly served as Warriors assistant coach under Croatian Zdravko Logarušić.
A source in the ZIFA secretariat Friday said the former Warriors captain has temporarily been cleared to coach in the top league while he prepares to acquire the CAF A licence, a course that has not been offered in the country for some time. The source said:
<blockquote>
He was cleared yesterday (Thursday). He was given a provisional exemption which means he can coach in the PSL until such a time when we have Caf A courses.
</blockquote>
Mwaruwari has promised to win trophies for Ngezi Platinum Stars where he will be deputised by former Highlanders gaffer Bongani Mafu, former Hwange coach, and Takesure Chiragwi. Cosmas “Tsano” Zulu remains the goalkeepers’ coach with another Warriors legend Tinashe Nengomasha appointed team manager while Tonderai Vera is the performance analyst.
The Undertaker arrives at Ngezi Platinum when the club has already slipped to seven points behind log leaders Chicken Inn and he will be expected to change the fortunes of the team.

ZIFA Clears Mwaruwari To Coach PSL

Ngezi Platinum Stars’ new coach Benjani Mwaruwari said that his arrival at the club will make it easier for players to get trials in Europe and for the club to secure friendly matches abroad.
Mwaruwari (43), played in South Africa, Switzerland, France and England over a career spanning 15 years.
The former Manchester City striker said he has already secured a pre-season friendly match with his former French side AJ Auxerre. He said:
<blockquote>
If I see a good player here it would be easy for that player to go and get trials abroad. That is one of the advantages of my being here.
It will be easy for me to facilitate friendly matches for Ngezi to go and play in Europe with teams that I played for.
For example, in Auxerre, I was recently there and I spoke to them that we would like to come and play a pre-season friendly match and they accepted.
So already we have a chance to go and play friendly matches against Auxerre.
</blockquote>
Mwaruwari, a holder of a UEFA A Licence, was unveiled as the new coach by Madamburo on Tuesday morning.

Mwaruwari Secures A Pre-season Friendly Match For Ngezi With AJ Auxerre

Newly-appointed Ngezi Platinum Stars head coach Benjani Mwaruwari doesn’t have a CAF A Coaching licence.
This means that he cannot sit on the coach’s bench during matches until the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA), allows him to use his UEFA A Licence in the local league.
It has emerged that Madamburo appointed Benjani as their new head coach without first applying for the waiver from ZIFA.
Acting ZIFA chief executive, Xolisani Gwesela, on Tuesday told Chronicle that his office had not received any application from Ngezi Platinum Stars. He said:
<blockquote>
I am not commenting on any recent developments in certain clubs but what I can tell you is that we have not yet received any application for a waiver on any coach who intends to work as a head coach for a Premiership team.
Look, our rules and regulations in terms of club licensing requirements state that only coaches with a CAF A licence can be head coach for a club playing in the Premier Soccer League.
Exceptions are only given under special circumstances that is after an application is made by the club intending to appoint individuals who do not have the requisite qualification.
There are special cases in the league which have been addressed but at the moment no team has come forward with any application pertaining to that issue.
</blockquote>
Ngezi Platinum Stars face Bulawayo Chiefs at Luveve on Sunday and Benjani might miss the match if the issue is not dealt with in time for the game.
<h2>Rules are rules</h2>
Ndebele asserted that the rules are clear no coach without a CAF A Licence can sit on the bench leading a premiership club. He said:
<blockquote>
The rules are clear and are there for everyone to see. Club Licensing is a serious matter and as a country, we all agreed that no coach without a CAF A Licence is allowed to sit on the bench leading a top-flight team.
But maybe the good thing is those clubs affected may apply for a waiver and depending on their situation, they can always be allowed to do so.

Benjani Doesn't Have A "CAF A" Coaching Licence

Ngezi Platinum Stars on Tuesday unveiled former Warriors stars Benjani Mwaruwari and Tinashe Nengomasha as head coach and team manager, respectively.
Bongani Mafu has been appointed the first assistant and Takesure Chiragwi, who has been working as the team’s interim coach, is the second assistant. John Vera is the new performance analyst.
Speaking at the unveiling on Tuesday, the club’s vice president Lysias Chiwozva said the technical team is aware of the club hierarchy’s expectations. Said Chiwozva:
<blockquote>
The technical team that has been unveiled today (on Tuesday) has its work cut out as the vision and goals, which the club aims to achieve, are well made out and are non-ambiguous.
It’s very clear, they should achieve the goals, that one is in black and white, there is no guesswork on that.
We are very clear on how we want our football academy should work, and we will give all our support.
We are also very clear about how we want Madamburo to perform at the Baobab. That one is non-negotiable. The team should thrill the fans with results.
</blockquote>
The Mhondoro-based Ngezi Platinum have a premiership match against Bulawayo Chiefs on Sunday.

Ngezi Platinum Stars Unveil Mwaruwari, Nengomasha

Former Manchester City striker, Benjani Mwaruwari, is set to be confirmed as the new Ngezi Platinum Stars head coach after reportedly signing a four-year deal with the ambitious Premier Soccer League club.
The deal will see the former Warriors captain replacing Rodwell Dhlakama who resigned last month after being accused of allegedly taking bribes from players.
Mwaruwari, who had short stints as Warriors assistant coaches to Zdravko Logarusic and Norman Mapeza, will be assisted by another former Warriors assistant Bongani Mafu who is currently in charge of Southern Region Soccer League log leaders Hwange.
Former Warriors midfielder Tinashe Nengomasha is coming in as team manager while Takesure Chiragwi who held the fort as interim coach following the suspension and subsequent departure of Dhlakama will be retained as one of the assistants to Mwaruwari. 
A source at the club confirmed that Madamburo have appointed The Undertaker. The source told Soccer24:
<blockquote>
Yes Benjani is the new coach, and will be assisted by Bongani Mafu and current interim coach Takesure Chiragwi while Father (Nengomasha) will be the team manager.
</blockquote>
Mwaruwari who attained the UEFA A coaching badge last year was recently at his former French club AJ Auxerre for a week-long attachment.
Ngezi Platinum Stars are currently fifth on the log standings, four points behind log leaders Chicken Inn whom they face on Saturday at Baobab stadium.

Benjani Mwaruwari Appointed Nyaradzo Brand Ambassador

Warriors interim coach Norman Mapeza has retained the pair of Taurai Mangwiro and Mandla Mpofu as his assistants as well as goalkeepers’ coach Energy Murambadoro ahead of Zimbabwe’s Africa Cup of Nations finals campaign in Cameroon next month.
The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) secretariat, which is currently running affairs at ZIFA, has added former Warriors striker Benjani Mwaruwari to the technical bench.
This means that Mwaruwari will work alongside Mangwiro and Mpofu as Mapeza’s assistant coaches.
The ZIFA board was suspended by the Sport and Recreation Commission (SRC) on 16 November and since then, the ZIFA secretariat has been running the football association’s affairs.
On Saturday, the secretariat confirmed that Mapeza had retained his assistants for the Cameroon tour of duty. It said:
<blockquote>
Norman Mapeza is coming back with the technical team he worked with during the World Cup qualifiers and Benjani Mwaruwari is coming in as the third assistant coach by virtue of him being the recommended Under-23 coach.
It is the norm that the Under-23 coach sits on the senior national team bench, the same way the Under-20 coach sits on the Under-23 bench.
</blockquote>
Mwaruwari is already in the country and is expected to join his colleagues when the AFCON camp begins in Harare on 23 December.
Meanwhile, several players will not be considered for the AFCON finals, among them Tendayi Darikwa, as well as Marshall Munetsi and Brendan Galloway who are injured.
Leicester City’s youth player, Tendai Masvanhise is yet to get a Zimbabwean passport while Khama Billiat recently announced his retirement from international football.

Mapeza Retains Assistant Coaches, Adds Benjani

Former Warriors assistant coach Benjani Mwaruwari is reportedly set to be drafted into the national team set-up again ahead of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals.
Zimbabwe currently has no technical team to lead the Warriors after Norman Mapeza’s contract as interim coach expired at the end of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers last month.
Mwaruwari was appointed as an assistant coach to former Warriors gaffer Zdravko Logarusic in September in a bid to salvage Zimbabwe’s World Cup qualifying campaign.
He however lost his job after two games when the ZIFA board fired the entire Warriors technical team including co-assistants Tonderai Ndiraya and Lloyd Chitembwe.
The Herald reported a source as saying Mwaruwari will be returning as one of the assistant coaches to whoever is offered the job to take the Warriors to Cameroon. Said the source:
<blockquote>
The issue of the coach is yet to be finalised. Of course, engagements have been going on and hopefully, by the end of this week, we should know which direction things are taking.
But what is likely to be certain is that Benjani Mwaruwari will be returning as one of the assistant coaches.
In fact, the idea was to give Mapeza a contract after the World Cup qualifiers and then allow him to choose his assistants.
This time he was supposed to have three assistants, including Benjani because there was a general feeling that he did not have enough time to make his contributions.
So, whoever is coming as a coach, even if the plans to re-engage Mapeza fail, should include Benjani in the set-up.
His experience is needed and his influence is critical, especially when going to such a tournament as the AFCON finals.
</blockquote>
Mwaruwari (43), a former Warriors captain sat on the Warriors bench for two matches against South Africa and Ethiopia before the upheaval. He was on the job for just 18 days.

Benjani Set To Be Reappointed Warriors Assistant Coach

Former Warriors captain, Benjani Mwaruwari on Friday spoke to The Sunday Mail about his 18-day long job as Warriors assistant coach.
The former Portsmouth and Manchester City striker was appointed on August 25 and 18 days later, he was dismissed together with uninspiring head coach Zdravko Logarusic.
The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) has since appointed Norman Mapeza as the caretaker coach. Mwariwari said he has no hard feelings. He said: 
<blockquote>
(I have) no qualms whatsoever. In any case, what happened was normal in any normal football situation.
Norman (Mapeza) had to be given the prerogative to choose his own assistants. He is a local coach who knows the terrain very well, having also coached the squad before, so it was only fair to let him hunt with his trusted dogs.
 Mapeza knows the players as well, so he has to fight the battle with his trusted soldiers and he has to be given that opportunity.
It is normal in coaching for a head coach to have his own trusted lieutenants.
In any case, I am fully behind Mapeza. We all have to support him because this is all about Zimbabwe, not individuals.
</blockquote>
When he was appointed into the national team set-up, Mwaruwari indicated that he wanted to use the term to learn as he had just attained a UEFA coaching badge.
That apprenticeship was, however, cut short, albeit in a rather embarrassing fashion.
But the former Manchester City striker who is now unattached maintains that Zimbabweans must rally behind Mapeza.
Before his Warriors appointment, he did some apprenticeship at his former club Portsmouth, who are now playing in English League One.
He remains open to another stint with the Warriors should it arise.
Mapeza came in with his own assistants — Mandla Mpofu of Highlanders and Triangle’s Taurai Mangwiro while former CAPS United and Zimbabwe goalkeeper Energy Murambadoro came in as the goalkeepers’ trainer.
He was given a three-month contract which runs out on December 31.

Benjani Mwaruwari Speaks On His 18-Day Job As Warriors Assistant Coach

Newly appointed Warriors’ assistant coach Benjani “The Undertaker” Mwaruwari has joined his colleagues in camp ahead of Friday’s FIFA 2020 World Cup qualifier against South Africa.
Mwaruwari was a shock addition to the national team technical staff by ZIFA last week, becoming the third assistant coach with Lloyd Chitembwe and Tonderayi Ndiraya.
The former Manchester City striker’s arrival was confirmed by ZIFA spokesperson Xolisani Gwesela, who said, “He is already in camp with his colleagues. He arrived yesterday.”
Meanwhile, the Warriors will be without UK-based players for the World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Ethiopia.
The British government placed Zimbabwe on its COVID-19 red list, meaning they’ll be without six players plying their trade in the United Kingdom.
The players would have been quarantined for 10 days on their return after the international assignments.
As a result, English Premier League and English Football League clubs refused to release Zimbabwean players for the matches.
The players affected by the move include Marvelous Nakamba, Tendayi Darikwa, Macauley Bonne, Jordan Zemura and Brendon Galloway.

Benjani Mwaruwari Joins Warriors Camp

Former Warriors striker Benjani Mwaruwari has been appointed national team assistant coach with immediate effect, the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) confirmed on Wednesday.
Warriors coach Zdravko Logarusic has been working with Dynamos’ Tonderai Ndiraya and Harare City’s Lloyd Chitembwe as his assistants, and Mwaruwari has now been roped in as the third assistant.
ZIFA has been under pressure from football stakeholders to sack the Croat due to his poor record with the Warriors, having won a single match in nearly a dozen matches, but the Felton Kamambo-led administration instead decided to bolster the technical team by appointing Mwaruwari.
The 43-year old, who recently got his UEFA A coaching license, is expected to start work when the Warriors start preparations for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Ethiopia.
Speaking <a href="https://ztn.co.zw/stream/2021/08/benjani-ready-for-warriors-job/">during ZTN’s weekly football show, The Couch, on Tuesday last week,</a> Mwaruwari made it clear that he will take the Warriors job if given the opportunity.
The former Manchester City striker said it would be better if Zimbabwe appoints local coaches rather than foreigners for the Warriors job. Said Mwaruwari:
<blockquote>
I prefer a local guy even though I now have the badges. That way we will be supporting the former players.
</blockquote>
The Warriors on Wednesday announced the squad that will face Bafana Bafana on 3 September at the National Sports Stadium in Harare before travelling to East Africa for the second Group G match on the 7th of the month.

Benjani Mwaruwari Appointed Warriors Assistant Coach

Sergio Aguero sealed his Manchester City Career with a brace that enabled him to break Wayne Rooney’s record of scoring most Premier League goals for a single club when City clashed with Everton Sunday.
City ended the Premier League campaign with an emphatic 5-0 win over Everton at the Etihad Stadium.
The Argentian striker came off from the bench in the second half to make his last appearance for City in front of the Cityzens (Manchester City fans).
Aguero who is City’s all-time top goalscorer is leaving the club he joined from Atletico Madrid in 2011.
Meanwhile, Kevin De Bruyne who is set to be the new leader at Etihad is the one who started the scoring against Everton before further goals from Gabriel Jesus and Phil Foden put City out of sight.
Aguero then took centre stage with his two efforts, taking his Premier League tally to 184 goals.
Aguero’s departure has prompted City to start looking for a replacement with Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane saying he would be interested to play with Kevin Debruyne at Manchester City.
Gylfi Sigurdsson missed a first-half penalty for the visitors, in a moment that summarised their uninspiring performance.

Real/Full Names Of 15 Prominent Footballers You Probably Didn't Know

Warriors newcomer and Bournemouth star Jordan Zemura has revealed how fellow countryman Benjani Mwaruwari influenced him in his football career.
Speaking during an interview with The Standard, Zemura, who was born in England to Zimbabwean parents, spoke in adoration of the former Warriors captain. He said:
<blockquote>A big (Zimbabwean) player for me is Benjani who played in England when I was growing up.
To see a countryman of his stature and to reach what he did would be everything.
How can I forget his celebration which was amazing and lit up my eyes?</blockquote>
After leaving Jomo Cosmos in South Africa, Benjani played for FC Zurich in Switzerland and for Association de la Jeunesse Auxerroise, commonly known as A.J. Auxerre in the French League before moving to England.
From 2006-11, Benjani featured for several teams in the English Premier League including Portsmouth, Manchester City and Blackburn Rovers, and spent some time on loan at Sunderland.
Meanwhile, Zemura made his Zimbabwean debut in the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) matches against the Desert Foxes of Algeria.

Zemura Reveals Zim Footballer Who Influenced Him Most

Former Zimbabwe Warriors skipper Benjani Mwaruwari has said he got the name Benjani by mistake after officers at the registry offices failed to capture his original name correctly.
In an interview with South African sportscaster Robert Marawa on his radio programme Legends Night at the weekend, the former Manchester City striker said:
<blockquote>My real name is Mpenjani. But you know my father (Amon) is from Malawi, so the pronunciation is not that great. So when he went to get my birth certificate they thought he said Benjani. And so on my birth certificate, it’s written Benjani.
When I was playing in Zimbabwe, the person who was writing the team card did not look properly on my particulars and he wrote Benjamin, instead of Benjani.
So that is where the name Benjamin came from. In Zimbabwe, everyone knew me as Benjamin and in South Africa as well.</blockquote>
He added that in Europe, he was simply known as Benjani after clubs found it difficult for them to pronounce his surname.
The Undertaker, as Benjani id affectionately known, said those who know him from Magwegwe, where he grew up, call him Mpe for Mpenjani which means “what do you want”.

Benjani Mwaruwari Speaks On His Real Name

Former Warriors captain Benjani Mwaruwari has, through his Benjani Mwaruwari Foundation and associates, donated foodstuffs to 900 families in Old Magwegwe and gave 30 hampers to Highlanders and Entembeni Old People’s Home.
The donation was worth $540 000 and recipients received a 10kg bag of maize meal, 750ml of cooking oil and a 500-gramme packet of sugar beans each to cushion them from the effects of the lockdown.
A social football club from Marisha in Old Magwegwe, Zulu Chiefs, which Mwaruwari plays for whenever he is in the country, also received foodstuffs.
Speaking on behalf of the Old Magwegwe residents, Cleopas Phiri thanked Benjani for the donation which he said came at a time when prices of basic good are rising astronomically. He said:
<blockquote>Benjy has always been helping the needy in our community and we really appreciate the efforts he continues to make by remembering us. We really appreciate his gesture.
You know with prices of mealie-meal skyrocketing and selling at R100 for a 10kg bag on the black market, this donation has really come at the right time to cushion us.</blockquote>
Highlanders chairman Kenneth Mhlophe also expressed gratitude to Mwaruwari for cushioning the club’s players and staff.

Mwaruwari, now 14, is already on the books of English club Portsmouth FC, a club his father once played for. Said the youngster:

He dedicates his spare time to teach me how to use my left foot since I use my right, what to do with a soccer ball on the first touch, and how to time my speed when I’m having a ball and how to effectively use my head to score. That has worked in my favour because I won accolades for being the best striker at my school.</blockquote>
