Chippa United have announced Morgan Mammila as the club’s new Sporting Director.
Mammila made a return to the Chilli Boys after being named as one of the assistant coaches in the side’s 4-1 hammering of Magesi FC at Seshego Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.
The last time the former Baroka FC CEO and head coach was with the Gqeberha-based outfit was last season where he went from being the head coach to a technical director on his way out.
“Chippa United FC is pleased to officially announce Morgan Mammila as the club’s first ever Football Sporting Director,” the club stated on Tuesday
“Mammila, who rejoined the club last month without an official announcement, as we have been working behind the scenes to carefully reintegrated him into the football environment after a period away from the game. Following a thorough evaluation, we have now formalised his appointment to lead the club’s sporting operations.
“In his new role, Mammila will be responsible for overseeing the technical team, driving player recruitment, and strengthening the developmental and reserve team structures to create a clear pathway for young talent. His appointment is a strategic step in ensuring continuity and alignment across all footballing aspects of the club, from the development level to the first team.
