Simba head coach Serbian Milovan Cirkovic returned to his homeland on Wednesday saying that he will only return if the club will send him his new contract.
Simba who recently finished third in Vodacom Premier League will later this year need the services of the coach in the coming two championships - Tusker Challenge Cup and Kagame Cup.
A Simba official yesterday appealed for the club\'s members and fans to turn up and raise money which would be used to pay the salaries of the Serbian tactician.
He said that the coach\'s budget was 9m/- per month, including salary, accommodation, meal and transport.
The source said the so called Friends of Simba had been paying his salaries since he joined the club early this year.
``Friends of Simba have told us that they can no longer pay for him because they are committed to other things,`` he said.
Cirkovic will be the third foreign coach to leave Simba if his contract does not materialize since Hassan Dalali and his executive romped into the power.
Other coaches who left because of the same problem are Brazilians Neider dos Santos and Nielsen Elias.
