Mamelodi Sundowns FC great Ernest 'Chirwali' Mtawali has been appointed as the new head coach of Creck SC. The former Sundowns captain signed a two-year contract with the Malawian team.

What happened?

Mtawali's appointment comes after Creck SC's poor run of form, with the team lying third from the bottom of the FDH Bank Premiership table. The team has registered only one win in six league matches.

Why it matters for Mamelodi Sundowns FC

Mtawali's move to Creck SC is a significant development for Mamelodi Sundowns FC, as the team's legend takes on a new challenge. The 59-year-old was a top midfielder for Sundowns in the 1990s.

What comes next?

Mtawali faces a tough task in saving Creck SC from relegation. The team's poor form led to the sacking of Mtawali's predecessor, Eliya Kananji. | Stat | Value | | --- | --- | | League Position | 3rd from bottom | | Wins | 1 | | League Matches | 6 | Mtawali will look to turn around the team's fortunes and secure their place in the FDH Bank Premiership.
