Top Contenders and Selection Process:

With Pitso Mosimane emerging as a fan favourite and Mngqithi’s potential availability. Chiefs are navigating a thorough selection process to secure the right fit for the coaching role.

Kaizer Chiefs are on the brink of securing a new head coach for the upcoming season. With negotiations heating up to bring Nasreddine Nabi on board from AS FAR.

Sources close to the club reveal that discussions are underway regarding the buyout clause of Nabi’s contract. With Chiefs poised to meet the R5 million price tag. This strategic move signals the Chiefs’ determination to strengthen their coaching staff and reclaim their dominance in South African football.

While Pitso Mosimane remains a top target, his expensive contract situation has propelled Nabi as a viable option for the Amakhosi. Chiefs are prepared to make the necessary moves to secure their preferred candidate. Signalling a shift in their recruitment strategy to prioritise value and potential over cost.

Club’s history and coaching decision pending 

The club’s history of navigating buyout clauses, such as with Steve Komphela in 2015, underscores their determination to bolster their coaching staff. By leveraging financial resources and strategic planning, Chiefs aim to position themselves as a formidable force in the DStv Premiership.

In the interim, Johnson’s tenure has faced scrutiny amid disappointing results, with his departure at the end of the season all but confirmed. The recent setback against Milford FC has further solidified the need for a coaching change, prompting management to expedite the search for Johnson’s successor.

Pitso Mosimane emerges as the frontrunner among fans, with his availability at the end of the season presenting a prime opportunity for the Amakhosi. Additionally, Mngqithi’s contract expiration aligns with Chiefs’ timeline for recruitment, opening the door for potential discussions. However Mamelodi Sundowns are in talks with him to extend his stay. But Nabi has now shot up to the top of the list.
