Ibenge turns down offer to coach Simba SC: ‘I have a job already’

As Vita Club coach Frolent Ibenge has openly claimed he is not ready to coach Tanzania champions Simba SC.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) tactician is among 55 coaches being considered to take charge of the Wekundu wa Msimbazi after the sudden exit of Belgian Sven Vandenbroeck.

The Belgian left Simba a day after guiding them to their third Caf Champions League group stage appearance in history after beating FC Platinum of Zimbabwe 4-1 on aggregate.
