Former Hearts of Oak trainer Kosta Papic joins Black Leopards

Former Hearts of Oak manager Kosta Papic has been appointed as technical director for South African side Black Leopards.

Papic joins after resigning from his post as Hearts of Oak manager on Monday.

The Serbian gaffer left Hearts of Oak after just 73 days in charge and in controversial circumstances, citing “partly personal” reasons for his resignation.

Papic left the shores of Ghana 12 hours ago and has now joined bottom placed South African league side Black Leopards as Technical director.

According to reports from South Africa, Papic will be in charge of all the technical matters at the club for the senior team and juniors.

The 60-year-old has in the past managed a number of clubs on the African continent including Orlando Pirates, Kaizer Chiefs, Polokwane City, Enyimba and many others.
