Simba Sports Club has officially unveiled Steve Barker (57) as the new head coach of Simba, replacing Dimitar Pantev, who was dismissed earlier this month.
Barker joins Simba from South African club Stellenbosch FC, a team he faced last season in the CAF Confederation Cup (CAFCC) semifinals, where Simba emerged victorious with a 1–0 aggregate win.
Barker has served as head coach of Stellenbosch for approximately eight seasons and has previously coached South African sides AmaZulu and the University of Pretoria.
For two consecutive seasons, Barker guided Stellenbosch to finish among the top four teams in the South African Premier Division, earning qualification for the CAF Confederation Cup (CAFCC).
Welcome to Msimbazi, Barker..!
