Hours before Amakhosi drew 0-0 with Sundowns before winning the match 5-4 on penalties to win the Home of the Legends Cup in Gqeberha, the club announced that coach Nabi remained in Johannesburg to recover from a minor orthopedic operation.
“This [yesterday] weekend, Kaizer Chiefs will be making their way to Gqeberha in the Eastern Cape for the inaugural Home of Legends Cup tournament at the Nelson Mandela Bay stadium,” the club said.
“Notably, the coaching staff will miss Head Coach, Nasreddine Nabi, who is recovering at home after recently undergoing a minor orthopedic operation.
“He is, however, expected to return in time to lead the team for their next league match, against Richards Bay in Polokwane on 27 November,” Kaizer Chiefs concluded.
