Kaizer Chiefs: "Nabi to be sacked!"
Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly set to sack Nasreddine Nabi at the end of the season.
Kaizer Chiefs ended the clubs 10-year long wait for silverware when they won the Nedbank Cup this past Saturday.
Nasreddine Nabi inspired his team to a 2-1 win over Orlando Pirates en route to becoming the 2025 Nedbank Cup Champions. However, despite this, reports have emerged claiming that Nabi and his whole technical team will be sacked at the end of the season.

According to TimesLive, Nabi will be sacked by Chiefs at the end of the season.
Furthermore, the same reports claim that his entire technical team will be let go.
This is because Amakhosi management are going to review the entire season as a whole. So, despite ending Chiefs' trophy drought, management and coaches are unhappy with Amakhosi as a whole.
They are currently fighting for a spot in the MTN8. They are no where near rivals, Orlando Pirates or even in the frame yet alone the picture to qualify for the CAF Champions League. Amakhosi are not contenders for the Betway Premiership and besides this trophy they are in a similiar or worse position in the league.
Therefore, the Chiefs hierachy will make a decision at the end of the season over Nabi's future based on the entire season as a whole. Ultimately, failure to finish in the top 8 will almost guarentee his departyre.
Nabi has a year left in his contract but is likely to be sacked at the end of the season.

Chiefs eye star winger, while Pirates announce new arrival!
Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates continue to engage in positive talks with both clubs linked to several star players, including in-form striker Fiston Mayele – however, that seems a bit of reach. A player who is believed to be attainable is Kaizer Chiefs' target, Maxi Mpia Nzengel. The Young Africans midfielder, like Fiesal Salum, is reportedly keen on a move to Soweto. 'So, he wants to come to Chiefs, because he is not keen on renewing with Yanga,' a source said. 'Also, he is said to be in advanced talks with them [Kaizer Chiefs].' Meanwhile, Baroka FC chairman Khurishi Mphahlele has confirmed that they have reached an agreement with Orlando Pirates for star defender Tshepho Moshiloane, who will arrive on July 1. 'We still got to pay Mashiloane until the end of June, but Orlando Pirates have purchased Mashiloane for the coming season, not this season,' Baroka' FC's chairman Khurishi Mphahlele told iDiski Times . 'But if Pirates want Mashiloane earlier there's no problem we've got an agreement with Pirates. We can always make provision for that, but we are going to pay Mashiloane at the end of June because his contract ends at the end of June and the Pirates contract begins on the first of July. 'From the first of July he is an Orlando Pirates player, until then he's still our player and we pay him.' An emerging theme in the offseason market is that Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates have the same tasted, highlighted most recently by their shared interest in SuperSport youngster 'Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs are both keen to sign SuperSport United left-back Neo Rapoo ahead of the new season,' an inside source revealed. 'His performances as he led South Africa U20 to the Africa Cup of Nations title earned him interest in Scandinavia and the Gulf but sources as Matsatsansa have confirmed Chiefs and Pirates are both seriously after the player who is seen as future senior national team left-back.' 'With Orlando Pirates having released Paseka Mako and the retirement of Innocent Maela, their interest on the promising full-back comes as no surprise, while Chiefs are looking to remedy a position that has plagued them in the last couple of seasons.'

Orlando Pirates news: Saleng, Rapoo, Mayele, Hotto, new coach
Orlando Pirates have several flams to put out, and it's perhaps the Monnapule Saleng fire, which is the hardest to deflame. The 27-year-old is obviously talented; he has proved it time and time again. However, his six-month hiatus has raised doubts about his ability to keep outside clubs at bay, suggesting that even if the Buccaneers want to sell Saleng, they lack interest. Meanwhile, Orlando Pirates have yet to announce Jose Riveiro's successor over a month after the Spaniard left for North Africa, and it appears their list of candidates is diminishing, as Pitso Mosimane and Rulani Mokwena are both said to be in talks with Egyptian giants Zamalek and Pyramids FC. Former Stellenbosch star Deon Hotto is set to stay at the club following their decision to offer the veteran playmaker a contract extension. Meanwhile, both of the Soweto giants (Pirates and AmaKhosi) are in the race for rising star Neo Rapoo. 'Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs are both keen to sign SuperSport United left-back Neo Rapoo ahead of the new season,' an inside source revealed. 'His performances as he led South Africa U20 to the Africa Cup of Nations title earned him interest in Scandinavia and the Gulf but sources as Matsatsansa have confirmed Chiefs and Pirates are both seriously after the player who is seen as future senior national team left-back.'

Kaizer Chiefs make their stance on Percy Tau CRYSTAL CLEAR
Kaizer Chiefs are Orlando Pirates are both contenders to sign 31-year-old Percy Tau during the ongoing winter window. Tau is expected to leave Qatar SC. However, the former Sundowns man's wages are seemingly prohibitive for both Soweto giants. FIVE Amakhosi stars are leaving the club before 2025-2026 Chiefs still have Khama Billiat's underwhelming stint at the club fresh in their memories. Now, they're hesitant to hand a bumper deal to a player over the age of 30. Billiat and Keagan Dolly were two of the country's best-paid players, but both failed to live up to the hype at Naturena. 'The team feels that apparently they believe they have learnt a lesson from the signing of Khama Billiat and Keagan Dolly,' an inside source explained. 'They paid a lot of money, but the club believes those returns were not worth it. So that's why they are looking at other forward players apart from Percy Tau. So, for now, he is not one of the targets. But in football, you never know what will happen in future. But definitely not now.'
