Kaizer Chiefs may be facing the unexpected possibility of losing their head coach, Nasreddine Nabi, as reports suggest he could be on his way to take over the Tunisian national team.
Despite only being with the club for a short time, Nabi has reportedly been included in a list of candidates for the prestigious managerial role.
A Long Road to Nabi’s Appointment at Chiefs
It wasn’t easy for Kaizer Chiefs to bring Nabi on board.
After a previous attempt fell through, the club worked tirelessly to bring the Tunisian coach to Naturena. This was seen as the beginning of a new chapter for the team, with hopes that Nabi could guide them back to their glory days.
His appointment was seen as a key step in the club’s future success.
However, despite the challenges faced in securing his signature, it seems the future might already be uncertain.
Could Nabi Be Leaving So Soon?
Nabi’s name has already been linked to other roles less than a year into his stint with the club.
First, there were rumors about him potentially joining Moroccan side Raja Casablanca, but now, the latest reports indicate that the Tunisian Football Federation is considering him for their national team’s managerial job.
The possibility of leaving Chiefs has clearly become a very real one, despite Nabi having spent less than one full season with the club.
What’s Next for Nasreddine Nabi?
According to reports from Tunisia, Nabi has been shortlisted for the role of managing the Tunisian national team, alongside other candidates.
The Tunisian Football Federation is said to be offering an estimated monthly salary of $9,000 (R166,000) to their new manager, which puts Nabi in direct competition with other potential managers like Sami Trabelsi, Maher Kanzari, and Mehdi Nafti.
How Will Kaizer Chiefs Fans React?
With Nabi’s future uncertain, fans of Kaizer Chiefs are left to wonder how they would feel if the coach were to leave after such a brief time.
The idea of losing a coach who was expected to lead the team back to glory after years of struggling is a tough pill to swallow.
Fans are already expressing their concerns, hoping that the club can retain their coach for a longer term to continue building on the work already started.
