Bunna’s coach bolts for South Africa

Title aspiring Ethiopia Bunna and their recently appointed head coach Kostadin Papic parted ways just two months in to his two year contract. The coach has moved back to his former club, the Royal Eagles, despite being under contract with Ethiopia Bunna. Last week Papic was missing from the bench during their 1-0 defeat to Welwalo-Adigrat. Then, on Tuesday a story hit the headlines that he joined the South African first division team Royal Eagles, for the second time. Though the 58 year old easy going Serbian was said to be unhappy with his salary with “The Brown Shirts” his excuse for his absence was his father’s sudden illness. This is the second time the 58 year old has walked out in the middle of his contract. Ironically the first was with the Royal Eagles when he told them he need to return home for back surgery but ended up signing a two year contract with Ethiopian Bunna. The team was off to a good start at two wins and a draw. According to Board Chariman Lieutenant Fekade Mamo, they are looking for another foreign coach.
