Nasreddine Nabi joined Kaizer Chiefs in the summer from Moroccan side AS FAR Rabat, but another top African club is said to be showing interest in the Tunisian gaffer.

The Glamour Boys are transitioning under the Tunisian mentor and have undergone mixed fortunes under him since the start of the season in the Betway Premiership.

Amakhosi ended last season in 10th position in the Premier Soccer League and have been seeing some improvement under Nabi this campaign, even though there's more work to be done.

The Tunisian coach worked with AS FAR Rabat last season in the Botola Pro League and lost the league title to Raja, coached by former Orlando Pirates mentor Josef Zinnbauer, by one point.

According to the South African, Zinnbauer is the first person on Raja's shortlist, while Nabi is the second option for the Green Eagles.

Kaizer Chiefs might be able to keep Nabi as he's invested in the club's project since he moved to South Africa, while Zinnbauer is currently unemployed after being sacked by Saudi Pro League side Al Wehda.
