Kaizer Chiefs are believed to be pressing ahead with plans to secure the services of a new coach 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. There have been the likes of Pitso Mosimane and Manqoba Mngqithi in a local sense. Internationally, Jose Peseiro, Vanderlei Luxembergo , Raul Caneda Perez and Nasreddine Nabi. 

VERMEZOVIC CLAIMS TO HAVE THE SOLUTION TO CHIEFS WOES

Now speaking to KickOff.com former Chiefs coach Vladimir Vermezovic says he knows how to fix the problems at Chiefs.

“For Kaizer Chiefs, it is too much to hear that they have gone almost 10 years without winning a trophy. Everything is about trophies at Chiefs. I know that because I was there. I know the solution for what is happening at Chiefs. Of course, the fans will not be happy if you don’t win games and don’t win trophies.” Said Vermezovic. 

WON TWO TROPHIES IN THREE YEARS AT AMAKHOSI

Vermezovic won two Telkom Knockout Cup titles in his three-year spell at Chiefs.
