The Tunisian manager didn't start the season with the Premier Soccer League giants due to attending to a family emergency, and when he returned, he didn’t stay for long before the news about his departure trended on social media.
The Glamour Boys invested in a new set of quality players in the summer and started the season well, but have since returned to a poor run of form in their recent matches.
Kaizer Chiefs part ways with Nabi
Kaizer Chiefs have released an official statement on their handle on X (formerly known as Twitter) to confirm that they've parted ways with Nabi, with the club still being linked to former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane.

"The new-coach effect has already worn out, but this move rallies the fans to get behind the technical team. Let's hope they don't ask for new(er) signings as they have a strong squad."
