AFC Leopards head coach Thomas Trucha has resigned after being in charge for only a month, the club announced. The Czech Republic international cited security concerns as the main reason he arrived at the decision.

“Today, we accepted Tomas Trucha’s resignation as Head Coach, effective immediately. This has been occasioned by the coach feeling that his safety is not guaranteed since his manager, Mr. Prince Channis, has been threatened by people purporting to be ingwe supporters.”

” This is disturbing and unacceptable for anyone who claims to be a supporter of this esteemed club. True AFC Leopards’ supporters hold themselves to the highest standard and put the Club’s and public good before all else.”

Further, the remaining back room staff will fill the vacancy on an interim basis.

“At this time, the remaining technical bench shall take charge as we consider a replacement. On behalf of the Management, we thank Trucha for his contributions to the Club and wish him well in his future endeavours.”

Trucha led Leopards in their first game of the season against Tusker where they won 2-1 at Kasarani.
