The publication reports that the management gave Hunt a mandate to finish in the top-eight bracket and also make it past the group stages of the CAF Champions League.

As things stand, Chiefs are placed 11^th on the DStv Premiership standings with just 20 points from 18 games.

Under Hunt’s tutelage, Chiefs have won just four league matches, drawn eight and lost the other six.

His team has also not been scoring enough as they have found the back of the net just 19 times while conceding 23.

And the Chiefs management wants the 56-year-old to improve the stats and at least take the team to a much more respectable position on the log.

In the CAF Champions League, Chiefs are third on the Group C standings, tied on four points with second-placed Horoya AC.

While they can fancy their chances of advancing to the knockout stages given how they have performed thus far, expecting Chiefs to ease into the quarter-finals could be a mammoth task.

That’s because both Horoya and Wydad Casablanca are regarded as strong favourites simply because of their pedigree in continental football.

Now, will Hunt shake things up at Chiefs with the current squad? Only time will tell.
