Mwaruwari, a former Jomo Cosmos, Auxerre, Manchester City and Portsmouth striker, was initially appointed one of the three assistants during the World Cup qualifiers when Croatian Zdravko Logarusic was head coach.
He was left out of the Warriors technical team when Mapeza was named head on an interim basis to take charge of Zimbabwe’s final World Cup qualifiers.
