Arthur Zwane

AmaZulu FC head coach Arthur “Phakimpi” Zwane has been named the Betway Premiership Coach of the Month for September and October 2026 following an impressive run of results with the KwaZulu-Natal outfit.

Zwane guided Usuthu to five victories during the assessment period, a run that has helped propel the Durban-based side to third place on the league standings.

The awards were determined by a panel of Premier Soccer League media-accredited judges, who cast their votes on 3 November 2026.

The AmaZulu mentor received the accolade ahead of Orlando Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou and Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso.

Reacting to the achievement, Zwane expressed his gratitude to the club’s staff, management and everyone who forms part of the Usuthu family, acknowledging that the recognition would not have been possible without their collective contribution. He also extended his appreciation to the AmaZulu supporters for their continued backing.

The award serves as recognition of the collective effort within the club as AmaZulu continue to build momentum in the Betway Premiership.

For the KwaZulu-Natal outfit, the accolade adds to an encouraging period as they look to maintain their position among the league’s top contenders.
