Yanga assistant captain Dickson Job has assured supporters that the team is fully committed to defending the club’s reputation by delivering strong performances in its upcoming domestic and continental assignments.
The Jangwani giants are currently holding a training camp in Unguja, Zanzibar, where they are taking advantage of the FIFA international break to fine-tune their preparations for two important fixtures this month.
Yanga are scheduled to face Polisi Tanzania in the Mainland Premier League before turning their attention to the CAF Champions League encounter against Algeria’s MC Alger.
Speaking during a training session, Job said preparations were progressing well, expressing confidence in the team’s direction under newly appointed head coach Fadlu Davids.
He said every player understood the responsibility that comes with wearing the Yanga shirt and was determined to demonstrate his abilities while competing for a place in the team.
Job added that the players were working closely with the technical bench, giving the new coach full support as he seeks to build a well-organised, strong and competitive squad capable of meeting the club’s ambitions.
"We are progressing well, and every player is demonstrating what he can offer to convince the coach to select him. We are fully supporting him as he works to build a strong and competitive team," Job said.
He emphasised that the players remained focused on their collective responsibility to represent Yanga with pride and deliver results that will keep the club competitive in both domestic and continental football.
The upcoming matches will provide an important test of Yanga’s preparations as they seek to maintain their domestic ambitions while strengthening their pursuit of success in the CAF Champions League.
