Kaizer Chiefs are pushing ahead with their plans to appoint a new coach ahead of the next season.

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.

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. Despite the public denial, reports of Amakhosi pursuing Pitso Mosimane have not gone away. He is believed to be the club’s number-one candidate.

Speaking to iDiski Times Mosimane’s agent Moira Tlhagale has revealed that he would like to coach a national team next. This could be a crushing blow to Chiefs. 

KAIZER CHIEFS TO MISS OUT ON MOSIMANE AGAIN?

“I will tell you definitely, the next move the coach would like to do or the coach and the whole technical team would like to do is a national team. So we are looking for those options for them, that’s the mandate they have given me. But obviously, if there is a project, even local, that comes, we’ll consider it.” Said Tlhagale.

This could be the reason why Chiefs have now been rigorously linked with alternatives. Could Mosimane be slipping away once again?
