KELVIN Kaindu has dumped Triangle United for How Mine and is expected to sign a contract early January.
Kaindu tendered his resignation at Triangle on November 9, meaning he will only be able to sign for the Bulawayo-based gold miners in the second week of January.
The Zambian was reportedly impressed with the contract offered to him by How Mine during a five-hour meeting on Monday where he also outlined his plans for turning around the club's fortunes.
Kaindu is joining How Mine on a three-year contract, whose key result areas are relaxed.
According to sources, the club is aiming at improving on their 2015 awful campaign and challenging for top honours in 2017 and 2018.
Sources said the club also agreed to Kaindu's request to bring national Under-23 goalkeepers' coach Tembo Chuma and former Highlanders' captain Bekithemba Ndlovu as his assistants.
"How Mine and Kaindu have agreed on everything but the coach can't sign at the moment because he still has a contract with Triangle. Chuma's position is the same as that of Kaindu and the two will sign in the new year," said the source.
"Kaindu met How Mine officials on Monday and both parties discussed next year's plans at length. He (Kaindu) presented his wish list that contains a number of unheralded players from the lower leagues and some from the PSL. It was agreed that Ndlovu will work with the club in bringing in players that Kaindu has suggested to the club during the holiday."
