Former Harambee Starlets head coach David Ouma has been promoted to the position of head coach by Tanzanian side Singida Black Stars.
The New Year’s good tidings have come early for the Kenyan tactician, who was part of the numerous changes announced by the club through a statement from the Board of Directors.
“Singida Black Stars would like to inform the public, fans, and football stakeholders that it has made operational changes to the technical bench,” reads part of the statement.
“Singida Black Stars has hired Othmen Najjar as the team’s general manager. In addition, the club has changed the role of Ramadhani Nsanzurwimo, who was the technical director, appointing him as the club’s technical advisor.
“The team general manager will work closely with the new head coach, David Ouma, alongside assistant coaches Mousa Nd’aw and Muhibu Kanu,” the statement continued.
Ouma replaces Argentine coach Miguel Gamondi, under whom he served as an assistant. Gamondi was offered the Tanzania national team head coach role on a permanent basis after guiding Taifa Stars to the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations round of 16.
However, the Argentine will remain at Singida Black Stars in a different capacity.
“In another step, Singida Black Stars has changed the duties of head coach Miguel Gamondi and appointed him as the club’s technical director.
“In addition, the club has no objection to coach Miguel Gamondi being appointed permanent head coach of the Tanzania national team, Taifa Stars, if the relevant authorities deem it appropriate,” the statement added.
According to the club, the changes are aimed at meeting the demands of both the domestic league and their CAF Confederation Cup campaign.
“Other employees not mentioned in this statement will continue to perform their duties as usual within the technical bench.
“These changes take effect immediately and are intended to improve technical efficiency as the team competes in national and international competitions.”
Ouma’s first assignment will be a CAF Confederation Cup home clash against Congolese side Otoho d’Oyo on Sunday, 25 January. Singida currently sit bottom of Group C with one point from two matches, while the Congolese outfit are second with three points.
