SC Villa have sacked their coach Petros Koukouras, just one month after saving the club from being relegated from the StarTimes Uganda Premier League.
Koukouras joined SC Villa last September, and endured a torrid season with the Jogoos who stayed in the bottom half of the league table much of last season.
In a statement issued Thursday, June 23, SC Villa president Ahmed Omar Mandela said the club has ‘amicably parted ways’ with the Greek coach and appreciated his efforts for steering the Jogoos through a very tough season.
Jackson Magera, who was Koukouras’ assistant, has been appointed as interim SC Villa coach as the club searches for a substantive manager ahead of the new 2022/23 season set to kick off in August.
