Letsholonyane writes farewell message to AmaZulu FC

Reneilwe Letsholonyane has written a farewell message to AmaZulu FC after parting ways with the club.

‘Yeye’ has been part of the KZN-based outfit since last season. He was initially appointed to mentor the under-17 side in January last year when AmaZulu introduced their Vision 2032.

Usuthu rang changes in the DStv Diski Challenge [DDC] side when they roped in Letsholonyane as an assistant coach to Siyabonga Nomvethe, who had taken over, replacing Siboniso Vilakazi.

Vilakazi had been moved up to the first team to assist Ayanda Dlamini following the reassignment of Romain Folz. ‘Fohloza’ had been named as a Technical Advisor.

Letsholonyane was then appointed permanently to guide the reserve side in August. However, AmaZulu DDC have had a poor campaign under his tutelage, and his exit came after seven defeats consecutively.

He has since written a farewell letter to the club, giving thanks for the experience he has acquired.
