The new Leopards coach has officially signed this Tuesday, August 13, 2019, a twelve-month contract at the head of the national team. This contract is accompanied by a half-yearly evaluation clause. Silence radio around the remuneration of this coach. A habit to ban in Congolese sports circles where economic and financial issues hinder.

Christian Nsengi Biembe was raised, the day after the resignation of Florent Ibenge Ikwange, with regard to the future deadlines that await the leopards including the qualifying phase for the CAN 2021 and World 2022 according to the Congolese Football Association (FECOFA).

If according to credible sources, 32 applications had been received without a call for tenders, the Federation was able to set its sights on the former national technical director.

Obviously, the Congolese authorities are not ready to put another big package to pick coaches of great continental fame with very well-defined target contracts. The contract of Christian Nsengi Biembe is similar to a test contract, it goes or it breaks.

If the first six months succeed to see the whole year, the contract could be extended, which is not a bad operation, as long as there are good results.

Christian Nsengi Biembe was trained in Belgium as a coach. He has led the U23 national team, a true supervisor of youth, he will try to bring his expertise to back the DRC descent into hell.
