Kaizer Chiefs are one of the biggest clubs in the Premier Soccer League and would always demand quality in every aspect of the team, and having top class coach is one of their aims.
This season, the club decided to part ways with Tunisian coach Nasreddine Nabi and appointed his assistants Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef as his replacement.
Amakhosi's demand for quality coaching and good results led to the two co-coaches coming under serious pressure from fans after the club were going through a rough patch.

Motaung Jr on importance of quality coaching
Motaung Jr. was commenting on the importance of the prestigious qualifications earned by Rory Minnaar, Jimmy Jambo, and Unathi Mabena, all of whom have completed their CAF A Diplomas.
Minnaar, who works as the goalkeeper coach for the Kaizer Chiefs Youth Development Academy (KCYDA), is now among a select group of just five goalkeeper coaches in the country with this certification.
Jambo, a former Zimbabwe international and ex-Chiefs left-back, currently manages the club’s Under-15 team. Meanwhile, Mabena has taken charge as the inaugural head coach of the newly formed Kaizer Chiefs Ladies side.
The Amakhosi Ladies squad, consisting of 24 players, is preparing to participate in the SAFA Sasol League in Gauteng, with home fixtures scheduled at KwaThema Stadium and the Kaizer Chiefs Village in Naturena.
Motaung Jr hails the three coaches
The club has also extended its congratulations to the trio, who now join other CAF A-qualified coaches within the setup, including Vela Khumalo and Mohammed Bhamjee, both involved in the KCYDA.

“We are incredibly proud of Jimmy, Rory, and Unathi for this achievement. Earning these licenses enables them to operate at the highest levels of international football,” said Motaung Jr.
“This milestone benefits both the club and our players. Football is constantly evolving, and our coaches must stay aligned with modern developments. We aim to ensure elite-level coaching across all seven teams at Kaizer Chiefs, not just the senior side.”
The former Kaizer Chiefs striker further expressed confidence in the coaching staff as he's assured they will pass on the knowledge they've gained to the youth team.
“We believe in their ability to pass on their knowledge and expertise to our youth teams and the women’s side as they compete in the Gauteng Development League, DStv Diski Challenge, and the Sasol League.”
