A lot of the players that were released by Chiefs were over 30-years-old with the majority never winning a trophy while at the club.

After that, Chiefs invested in players who were either younger or in their prime years, like Ashley du Preez, Zitha Kwinika, George Matlou, Dillon Solomons and Yusuf Maart to name but a few. With new acquisition Thatayaone Ditlhokwe, 24, Given Msimango, 26, and Mduduzi Mdantsane, 28, all proving consistent with Zwane’s strategy. But if news coming out today is anything to go by, he might not be at the club to oversee the second phase of his vision as head coach next season.

According to a source speaking to The Citizen, Zwane might not be on the bench for Chiefs in their last game of the season against Cape Town City.

Chiefs to give Zwane time off?

“What he went through is heavy emotionally and such things take a lot from you especially if you are a local coach, a club legend. He might be given time off and that would mean he would not be there on Saturday when they close off the season.” Said the source.
