Churchill Brothers have zeroed in on their new coach for the I-League and is expected to arrive later today in Goa which means that Emeka Ezeugo is just hours away from getting the boot.
The Goan side has been enshrouded in controversies this season and have been practicing without their coach ever since the Durand Cup final loss to Mahindra United more than two weeks back.
Speaking to Goal.com late last night, team manager Denzil Ferrao said, “Yes, we are on the lookout for a coach and he is expected sometime tomorrow. He is a Yugoslavian coach and his first name is Zoran.”
Denzil mentioned that he had been in touch with Zoran for sometime but it was club president Joaquim Alemao who invited the coach over for the meetings and formalities.
Meanwhile, Emeka Ezeugo reported to the training session last morning but the players on seeing him decided to boycott the practice. It was only after the Nigerian coach left that the players returned to train.
The World Cupper was at the center of creating problems in the club as criticized several player in the media for which he was blasted by the club management when they met on 9th September.
Two days later in another meeting attended by the squad and the coach at Churchill Alemao’s office, several players voiced their thoughts on Emeka’s tactics and expressed their displeasure.
“At half time, the coach would blast us so much that our morale would go down automatically,” said a player on anonymous grounds.
“It’s good that the coach (Emeka) is going as the relationship with him as crumbled down and went to the point of no return,” added another.
