Kaizer Chiefs’ management has reportedly held a crucial meeting with head coach Nasreddine Nabi and his technical team in response to the club’s recent struggles. The decision comes after a string of disappointing results that have put the team under increasing pressure.
Amakhosi’s recent form has been worrying, with a 2-0 defeat to Richards Bay, a narrow 1-0 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns, and a crushing 4-1 home defeat against SuperSport United. These results have left Chiefs outside the top eight in the DStv Premiership standings, raising concerns over yet another underwhelming season.
According to sources within the club, the meeting was not just a routine review but a serious discussion about the way forward. Chiefs' hierarchy is said to be exploring solutions to improve performances in the remaining league fixtures and their ongoing Nedbank Cup campaign.
"It was a meeting about looking at how they can improve things," an insider revealed. "Everyone at the club knows and believes that the team is on the right track and can do better than the way things are going."
The source emphasized that this was not a standard technical meeting but rather a strategic discussion involving senior management, aimed at addressing the team’s poor run of form.
With only eight league games left, Chiefs are in danger of finishing outside the top eight, which would mark another disappointing campaign. The club is also desperate to end their long trophy drought, making the Nedbank Cup a crucial opportunity. A second source confirmed that securing a strong finish in the league and making a serious push for the cup were key topics of discussion.
"They talked about how they can avoid what happened last season, where they finished 10th and ended without a trophy," the source explained. "The focus is now on finishing in the top eight and fighting for the Nedbank Cup, where they are already in the semi-finals."
Chiefs are set to face the winner of the Mamelodi Sundowns vs. Sekhukhune United quarter-final in the last four of the tournament. However, their inconsistent performances have raised doubts about their ability to compete at the highest level.
As the club searches for solutions, it remains to be seen whether this latest meeting will lead to a much-needed turnaround. The coming weeks will be crucial for Nabi and his squad as they attempt to salvage their season and restore some pride for their supporters.
