Kaizer Chiefs To Make Seven New Appointments!

Kaizer Chiefs are set to usher in a new era as they aim to give whoever their new coach is, the best possible foundation to succeed!

Arthur Zwane was in-charge at Chiefs last season, before being replaced by Molefi Ntseki ahead of the current campaign.

To the majority of the Chiefs fan base, Ntseki was already an unpopular appointment, with no positive track record. Prior to taking over the first team reigns, he had never coached a senior professional side. He did, however, coach Bafana Bafana after Stuart Baxter, before being fired for failing to qualify for AFCON 2021. The duo reunited as part of a new structure at Amakhosi, which put him in charge of football development.

Ntseki did not last long as Chiefs coach, however, being sacked before even the halfway mark of the season. This came after an unconvincing start to the campaign which also saw them knocked out of two cups. After being relieved of his duties, the club appointed Johnson to take over on an interim basis. Coincidently, Cavin Johnson also came into the club in a developmental role, before being asked to steady the senior ship.

SEARCH FOR CHIEFS COACH ON GOING
A run which saw Chiefs winning three of their last four games of 2024, saw Johnson in with a shout. But now according to the latest, the club are back looking at other candidates. It was reported on this website that the club had earmarked two local candidates for the job. Those being Pitso Mosimane, the lead candidate, as well as Manqoba Mngqithi.

WILL BE JOINED BY SIX MORE STAFF MEMBERS!
Now according to the latest reports, a new coach appointment is just one of many changes expected at Chiefs. Amakhosi are believed to be hoping to make an additional six appointments geared towards helping him succeed. It is thought that they want a first assistant, second assistant, technical director, fitness trainer, performance analyst and goalkeeper coach.

It remains to be seen how quickly Chiefs can announce their new technical team.
