The Tunisian gaffer has been suspended by the Premier Soccer League giants as he nears an expected departure early in his second season, despite leading the club and his technical team to end their ten-year trophy drought with a Nedbank Cup victory last season by beating city rivals, Orlando Pirates, in the final.
Kaizer Chiefs started the season on a good note, but has since dropped form after Nabi reportedly parted ways with the club.
Kaze addresses talks on Nabi's betrayal
Kaze, who previously worked alongside Nabi at Young Africans, was asked about how his colleague feels about the current situation at Kaizer Chiefs.
“I’ve known coach Nabi for several years, and having worked closely with him, we both understand the nature of this profession,” Kaze explained.
“Although he’s not here right now, I’m confident he would be proud to see us continue the work he started and push the club towards where it deserves to be. Coach Khalil and I are fully focused on leading the team in tomorrow’s match, and every decision we make is aimed at keeping us in the best possible position to deliver a strong performance.”

Kaizer Chiefs need a win against Kabuscorp to secure a place in the next round of the CAF Confederation Cup, and they have to do it without the presence of Nabi, which means Khalil Ben Youssef and Kaze need to do the needful at the FNB Stadium this weekend.
Here is what fans are saying about Kaze's address on social media.
