Hiring decorated Mzansi coach Pitso Mosimane could cost Kaizer Chiefs a monthly salary of more than R2 million.

Since 2020, Mosimane has earned over R64 million coaching in Egypt, UAE and Saudi Arabia, meaning Amakhosi can expect a heavy bill to hire the five-time PSL champion.

Despite suffering relegation at Abha FC in the Saudi Pro League, reports suggest Pitso Mosimane will demand a salary exceeding R2 million in his next job.

With Chiefs in search of a new coach for next season, the rumour of Mosimane filling that role gained more speed after his agent and wife, Moira, was recently seen at Naturena.

Fans say Chiefs can afford Pitso

Amakhosi supporters took to social media to say Chiefs would be wise to spend their money on other targets, while others said the Soweto giants have more than enough financial muscle.

Boineelo Moitsedikwalo Moruri says Pitso must earn the salary:

Mandla Mntambo says Chiefs need more than Pitso:

"You can have the best coach but can't win games if you have poor players."

Mungadi Mmboniseni Richard prefers Nabi:

"Nabi is better, yes. Pitso is a quality coach too, but sometimes his demands are too big for a PSL team."

Ndash King Kabasa says Pitso is the wrong choice:

"They must leave him; Chiefs does not have Sundowns' muscle to buy the players he will need."

Otshepeng Tshepi Martins says quality costs money:

"If a coach is delivering like Pep Guardiola, you can pay him R2m."

Kgomotso Mogodiri identified an obstacle:

"Chiefs can easily afford Pitso, but 'the family' is the obstacle."

Xolani' Sherbet' Ngwenya says money is not an issue:

"R2M is nothing to Chiefs; if they can pay players like Dolly over a million, they can do the same with the coach."
