Kaizer Chiefs sack coach Stuart Baxter – reports (Citizen)

Several reports have emerged that Kaizer Chiefs have pulled the plug on Stuart Baxter's regime at Naturena.

With fans booing after the game, Baxter offered to step down. It is not clear if the club accepted the offer or if they decided to pull the plug after realising that Amakhosi will yet again finish the season without a trophy. Baxter’s firing comes days after the club lost at home to SuperSport United, a result that dented their chances of finishing in the top two of the DStv Premiership.

Chiefs show coach Baxter the door (Johannesburg Sunday World)

For the second time in five years, Kaizer Chiefs have fired their English coach Stuart Baxter after his failure to bring silverware.

Chiefs was also knocked out of the Nedbank Cup by the same TS Galaxy responsible for denying them the same silverware three seasons ago. The now former Chiefs coach was also adamant in his refusal to give some of the players that were on the fringe of making an impact in the team some game time. The sacking comes after Chiefs’ trophyless drought that extends to seven seasons, more so Baxter had promised at the beginning of the season that he was back to win the league, but now the team is lying in fourth place on the 16-team PSL log.

SIX reasons Kaizer Chiefs might wait for Pitso Mosimane (The South African)

In case you've been hiding, Kaizer Chiefs have reportedly fired Stuart Baxter. Here are six reasons Pitso could possibly be the next coach.

The quarter-final first leg at home to Raja Casablanca was only a narrow 2-1 win. It is no secret that Pitso is under pressure after a somewhat underwhelming run in this season’s CAFCL group stage. Zwane will at least be given a chance to show his quality in the remaining seven games. While Pitso became an instant legend in Cairo with Al Ahly, a man who wears his heart on his sleeve always upsets those around him. It is safe to say that a return to Chloorkop is probably impossible for Mosimane. Moving to rivals Kaizer Chiefs could be a chance to get one over his enemies with success. The Kagiso-born coach has since been twice attacked during his visit to the club.
