Former Harambee Stars coach Adel Amrouche has been fired by the Tanzanian Football Federation after being slapped with a ban by the Confederation of African Football.
The Tanzanian Football Federation (TFF) has announced the sacking of Taifa Stars head coach Adel Amrouche following his ban by the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
The federation made an announcement on Friday evening on their social media pages in an official press statement that was signed by their Communications officer Clifford Mario Ndimbo.
The former Harambee Stars head coach was earlier in the week quoted to have made jarring accusations to Morocco a few days ahead of their clash with the World Cup semifinalists. This led to CAF banning the tactician from eight matches.
