Davids Leaves Simba, Set For Raja Return

South African coach Fadlu Davids has confirmed his immediate departure from Tanzanian club Simba SC.

The move comes as Davids is reportedly set to rejoin Raja Casablanca in Morocco, where he previously served as an assistant coach.

Davids’ Journey and Next Chapter

Davids joined Simba SC at the start of last season, but his time there ended without a trophy, as the team finished second in the league to Young Africans and lost the CAF Confederation Cup final to Morocco’s RSB Berkane.

Interestingly, Davids is no stranger to Raja Casablanca. He was the assistant coach to Jozef Zinnbauer during the 2023/24 season when the team won the league title. His expected return to the Moroccan club marks a significant next step in his coaching career.

A Heartfelt Farewell to Simba Fans

Davids took to social media to express his gratitude and say his goodbyes. In a heartfelt message, he said:

“It is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to Simba SC. From the moment I arrived, I felt the passion of this great club and the love of its incredible fans. Together we fought, celebrated, and grew stronger through every victory and every challenge. 
 
“My deepest gratitude to President Mo Dewji for his inspiring leadership, vision, and constant support. 
 
“To the players: keep fighting, keep believing, and keep lifting the badge with honour. 

“To the staff and management: thank you for your trust and tireless dedication behind the scenes. 
 

“To the Simba fans: you are the heartbeat of this club. Your voices, your songs, your unwavering passion will forever echo in my memory. Thank you for welcoming my family as your own. 
 
“Simba will always be part of me, and I wish the club endless success, prosperity, and trophies ahead.”
