Michael Nees, the newly-appointed head coach of the Zimbabwe national football team, is anticipated to arrive in Zimbabwe later this week.

Despite his appointment being officially confirmed by the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) earlier this month, Nees has yet to commence his duties.

The German coach, who signed a two-year contract extending through June 2026, was initially scheduled to arrive in Zimbabwe last week.

However, his arrival was postponed due to delays with immigration paperwork. Fortunately, the necessary permits have now been issued, and Nees is now expected to land in Zimbabwe on Wednesday, as reported by New Zimbabwe.
