Fasil boss Wubetu resigns

Knockout cup holders Fasil Town’s popular Coach Wubetu Abate took everyone by surprise submitting his resignation despite having a one year remaining contract.
Highly regarded by sport fans for building the most entertaining football playing side in the recently closed premier league season, Wubetu’s shocking bombshell came at the most unexpected time for football fans in particular to club officials. They were focused on looking for new signees to beef up Fasil ahead of the club’s first ever international fixture against Tanzanian counterpart Azam.
Some suggested his resignation is due to a journey to US America to take a coaching course, but he nevertheless changed his mind to stay with Fasil until the preliminary round two legs showdowns against Azam.
Though it appears that Wubetu is unlikely to change his stance on his resignation, Fasil’s officials are said to leave no stone unturned to make him stay for at least the coming season. “He not only build a strong side capable of contending for the league title, but he made Fasil a popular side for playing entertaining football” a fan of Fasil suggested.
Wubetu had already started business as usual signing new players to strengthen his squad as well extending contracts with two of the four foreign players in the team Ezu Ezuka and former Dedebit central fender Kalid Kulibali. The two players’ consistent performance throughout the season helped Fasil achieve the unexpected.
Fasil Town entertains visitors Azam in Confederation Cup preliminary round. The first leg takes place at Bahirdar International Stadium early August with the return leg in Dar es Salaam a week later.
