Second tier side AS Muhanga have dismissed reports indicating that the club appointed Marcel Lomami as their new head coach ahead. Reports were rife in the local media that the Espoir FC tactician completed a move to AS Muhanga and that he would coach the team during the playoffs which begins on Wednesday, May 22. The South Province-based team, however, quashed the rumours. It is not true that we have handed Marcel Lomami the AS Muhanga job, there is no truth in the story circulating around, the club said in an X post on Wednesday.
