The recent firings began at the end of March when Benni McCarthy was unceremoniously axed by AmaZulu, effective immediately.
The shock news about McCarthy’s axing was followed closely by the announcement last Tuesday that SuperSport United and long-serving coach Kaitano Tembo had reached a mutual agreement to part ways, with assistant Andre Arendse taking over.

Baxter’s contract was set to run until 2023, with there being an option to renew, but it now appears that the experienced coach’s second stint with Kaizer Chiefs has come to an unceremonious end.
Kaizer Chiefs are currently fourth in the DStv Premiership standings with 39 points after 23 matches.
