Marumo Gallants F.C. confirms the appointment of Lafitte Alexandre as the club’s new Head Coach. The
28-year-old French coach brings a strong track record in leading teams in both France and Côte d’Ivoire. Alexandre most recently managed Stade d’Abidjan, where he guided the team to the Ivorian League title and qualification for the CAF Champions League group stages in the 2023/24 season.
His appointment follows the departure of Abdeslam Ouaddou, who parted ways with the club at the end of the recent season.
“Coach Alexandre has a clear understanding of the direction we are taking as a club,” said Abram Sello, President of Marumo Gallants F.C. “He joins ahead of pre-season, which is critical for continuity and alignment with our objectives.”
Coach Alexandre is expected to arrive in South Africa in two weeks to join the team. Pre-season training will officially begin on 1 July 2025
