The Spanish coach believes that a club with the history of Amazulu deserve better.

“I am really excited. I have known for a long time about AmaZulu, following them. I know how huge and important this club is,” Martin said.

“And I am going there with the intention of making history by bringing the team back to the place it deserves. To make everyone, especially the fans and people in the club proud.”

Martin feels that the PSL is a league with an impressive level and he looks forward to working with the talents assembled at the 91-year-old club.

“I have been watching the PSL for a long time. I think it is around four of five years now. There are also some players who have played in that league that I have coached before. I often talk to them and discuss the level there. I know it is a competitive league and any team can beat anyone,”said Martin.

“I already have experience playing against Orlando Pirates in the Caf competitions,” the 43-year-old tactician added.

“At that time you could see that level in a team from Tanzania, even if it is a big team like Simba and Pirates.

“We were however capable of competing against them. And if I could do it with Simba being inferior, I am sure I can do better with AmaZulu and fight for titles.”

Amazulu finished 12th in the Premier Soccer League last term. Only one team in the Premiership secured less wins than Amazulu last season despite significant transfer spending.
