Kaizer Chiefs to Negotiate With Bernard Parker, Amakhosi Keen to Keep Die Hond at Naturena in Different Role

• Bernard Parker's contract at Kaizer Chiefs will come to an end after an 11-year stay as an Amakhosi player
• Kaizer Chiefs are looking at bringing Bernard Parker on board in a different capacity at the Soweto club
• Bernard Parker remains Kaizer Chiefs' all-time leading goal scorer in the Premier Soccer League era

Bernard Parker has become a legend at Kaizer Chiefs and he could be writing a new chapter in his story at the Amakhosi.

The Soweto club plan to sit down with the 36-year-old striker, hoping to find a new role for him at the club.

Die Hond’s 11-year stay at the club comes to an end when his contract expires at the end of June.

The Amakhosi opted not to renew his contract at the club, as they continue with their rebuild under Arthur Zwane.

FarPost now reports that the club will sit down with Parker and look at options to give him a place at the club in a different capacity. Zwane has previously backed the idea of Parker taking up a coaching role at the club in the future.

The wait is over for Kaizer Chiefs fans.

The Amakhosi held a special press briefing today in which they announced Arthur Zwane as their new head coach for the upcoming season. Zwane has been serving as an interim coach alongside Dillon Sheppard since the club sacked Stuart Baxter.

Numerous names were linked with the coaching role during that time, but fans believed that Zwane deserved the chance to lead the Soweto giants. Zwane has been handed a three-year contract. Dillon Sheppard will serve as the assistant coach.
