Dário Monteiro has been named the new head coach of Maxaquene, a club competing in Mozambique’s top football league, Moçambola. He replaces Mauro Jamal, who was recently dismissed due to unsatisfactory results. Monteiro returns to coaching after a period of inactivity, bringing with him a notable track record in Mozambican football. He has previously managed Desportivo Maputo, Liga Desportiva de Maputo, and Ferroviário de Nacala, as well as the Mozambique Under-20 national team. Notably, he led the Under-20 team to victory in the COSAFA Cup in 2020. Monteiro’s primary objective is to secure Maxaquene’s position in Moçambola, as the club currently sits in twelfth place with only two points. The appointment aims to revitalize the team’s performance and avoid relegation.
