As another season draws to its conclusion, the big question at Kaizer Chiefs has revolved around whether Nasreddine Nabi will stay or go.

After finishing outside of the top eight in the league, there are strong rumours to suggest that certain factions of the club are in favour of seeing him move on after a tumultuous season to date.

Yet, in the other camp, it seems there are some calls to keep the faith and continue back to Nabi after he at least led the club to Nedbank Cup silverware this season.

Have Kaizer Chiefs made a big decision on Nabi?

With all this in mind, it has been interesting to hear the latest word out of the Glamour Boys camp.

According to Nabi himself, he has remained part of the planning for next season after seemingly receiving the assurance that there will be improvements to the squad.

“We’ve had an exchange with the management and the Chairman, and we know exactly what needs to be done in terms of players,” said Nabi.

“I will not say how many or which kind of players we need, but the recruitment department is working very hard, everyone knows the needs of the team, and contact has started already.

“When we get what we need, we are sure that the team is going to improve a lot.”

And when speaking during a recent radio interview, Kaizer Chiefs sporting director Kaizer Motaung Jr. also implied that they weren’t going to turn their back on the coach.

“Hehas got another season after this with us now. At the same time, like we do after every season, we sit down and review. We know that the results in the league have been inconsistent. We know we’ve just been able to achieve a record milestone.

“With everything else, we’re moving forward in our planning… (It’s time to) galvanise the supporters, galvanise the technical team, the players, the staff for the mission ahead. So, we’re just planning for the future.”
