Mabhudi Khanyeza Could Get a Swift Return to PSL Coaching Role

  • Former Lamontville Golden Arrows coach Mabhudi Khanyeza could get a new job shortly after parting ways with the Kwa-Zulu Natal side
  • Khanyeza left Arrows and could end up at PSL rivals Richards Bay, who recently sacked coach Brandon Truter
  • Local football fans reacted on social media to say Khanyeza had to leave Arrows as they had already lined up a replacement in former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi

After leaving his coaching post at Lamontville Golden Arrows, Mabhudi Knayeza could be set for a new job in the PSL.

The former striker is reportedly close to joining Richards Bay FC, while former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi is favoured to replace Khanyeza at Arrows.

Due to several coaching changes, Khanyeza could get a quick return to coaching, and Richards Bay has reportedly shown an interest after sacking Brandon Truter.

It remains to be seen if Khanyeza will replace Truter as the head coach after he served as co-coach of Natal rivals, Arrows.

Fans made their predictions

Local football fans reacted on social media by predicting where certain PSL coaches could end up.

Ditiro Seerane is philosophical:

"My grandfather once told me that if you walk in the bush and see the same tree twice, know that you're lost. So if Mngqithi returns to Arrows, it means he failed at the top."

Sboniso Khumalo made a prediction:

"He's going to Richards Bay FC."

Masilo Callies said there was a reason why Khanyeza left Arrows:

"He's paving the way for Manqoba Mnqgithi."
