Reports indicate that Chiefs are close to securing the services of Nasreddine Nabi, but may have shot themselves in the foot as two other sought-after managers are now available.

The predicament Chiefs find themselves in

As noted by Soccer Laduma, Chiefs now have three viable options but can hire only one of them.

The three men are Nabi, Alexandre Santos and Pitso Mosimane.

According to the publication, Chiefs put all their efforts into signing Tunisia’s Nabi, eager to avoid the mistake last season where they missed out on his signature and had to hire Ntseki.

The club were heavily linked with the FAR Rabat manager, but the deal never materialised.

What each manager brings to the table

Nasreddine Nabi
