I and my technical team bring lots of experiences and lessons – coupled with our commitment and determination. Our most ardent target is to help our players develop into the best version of themselves individually and as a group to help foster the club’s objectives. In the long run, we should certainly look to challenge on all fronts for honours within 3 years”.
