The former Orlando Pirates star was relieved from duty at Manchester United, and he is currently without a coaching job.
The Bafana Bafana legend has PSL experience, having played and coached two clubs in the league before moving abroad to join the Red Devils.
2. Steven Pienaar
Pienaar has been working with AFC Ajax since retiring from professional football and completed his UEFA A Licence five years ago.
The former South African international will be a good acquisition for Nabi's technical team as Da Cruz's replacement if Amakhosi poaches him from the Eredivisie champions. He will be a great asset to unearthing young players from the Soweto Giants' academy.
3. Arthur Zwane
Zwane is reportedly the frontrunner to take the vacant space Da Cruz left behind at Kaizer Chiefs, as he's familiar with the club and works with the academy.
Despite most fans going against his appointment, the former South African international will offer his best if given the chance by the club management.
Kaizer Chiefs welcomes back a former player
Briefly News also reported that Kaizer Chiefs are excited to welcome back Njabulo Blom to the club ahead of the new season.
The 24-year-old returned to the club he left in 2022 after his loan arrival from American side St Louis City.
