Former Hearts of Oak boss, Kosta Papic, has been appointed Technical Manager of South African side, Black Leopards after leaving Ghanaian giants Accra Hearts of Oak.

Papic tendered in his resignation after just 78 days in charge of the Phobians, citing external influence from the top hierarchy of the club.

This will be Papic’s second stint at Black Leopards, after a previous spell with the club in 2013.

Papic played 10 games as the head coach of Hearts of Oak, won 4, drew 4 and lost 2.

The Serbian has experience in Africa working with clubs in South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria and Tanzania.

Papic has previously worked with Lobi Stars, Enyimba FC, Enugu Rangers, Maritzburg United, Orlando Pirates, Kaizer Chiefs, Young Africans SC, Chippa United, Black Leopards and Polokwane City.
