Kaizer Chiefs manager, Bobby Motaung has shared the club's plans for the second stanza of the season with the PSL on break due to the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The AmaKhosi boss has also responded to persistent rumours in the media, suggesting that veteran manager, Pitso Mosimane turned down a chance to coach the team.
Recent reports have linked the former Al Wahda of UAE tactician with the Premier Soccer League (PSL) giants, who are said to still be in search of a permanent manager.

Meanwhile, Chiefs have continued to engage in friendly matches and tournaments in a bid to keep their players in top condition.
In a chat with Sunday World, Motaung stated there were no plans to replace interim coach, Cavin Johnson, who is doing well.
"[Johnson] is still continuing with his job. We have not spoken to any other coach. About coach Pitso, it was shocking to read about the things we do not know in the media. We have never engaged Pitso; we never interviewed Pitso.
The Chiefs boss also stated outright that no proposal had been sent to Mosimane about taking on the coaching role.
"We were surprised to read that Pitso rejected our offer. We are trying to stabilise the team at the moment. Issues of the coach will be discussed later. If you check, the momentum of the team is good. We do not want to disturb that."

FootballSports Brief earlier reported on the club's star, Nkosingiphile Ngcobo explaining how Johnson gets the best from Chiefs since the South African took control.
The former Al Ahly assistant coach replaced Molefi Ntseki as the first team manager on an interim basis after the latter parted ways with the AmaKhosi last October.
Johnson has been in charge of the Chiefs first team during seven games in the current Premier Soccer League campaign, winning four of those encounters.
