Molefi Ntseki Settling into His Role as Head of Technical and Youth Development at Kaizer Chiefs

Molefi Ntseki is now heading up an important role at Kaizer Chiefs after having a failed stint as the coach of Bafana Bafana. Ntseki, who is settling into his role, spoke to the media in a press release about his plans for youth development.

Molefi Ntseki, Kaizer Chiefs' head of technical and youth development, has been on a steep "learning curve" since joining Amakhosi in June.

He has a wealth of experience, having held a variety of positions in the South African Football Association - including the position of Bafana Bafana head coach - but admits that working with Chiefs is a different task.

“It has been a learning curve, which has been very profitable for me. We are working in a big club in a big institution with so many role players, we need to know and understand how to work with them,” he said in an interview with Kaizer Chiefs media.
