After hanging up his boots from international football in 2019, for the second time, Katsande expressed his desire to pursue a career as a coach. In an interview with the Manica Post, he revealed his plans to commence coaching studies in June 2020.
“I think I will only return to the national team set up as a coach. I will be starting my coaching studies in June next year and by the time I call it a day in terms of playing I should have attained the highest coaching badge,” Katsande said at the time.
While it remains unclear whether Katsande achieved his coaching qualifications, he has made a comeback to the football scene, this time as a football analyst for the SABC.
