Having previously worked with Nasreddine Nabi - the man expected to be the new head coach of the Glamour Boys - the pairing of the two promises to add new cohesive dynamic to Chiefs’ technical team.

The Tunisian goalkeeping coach will replace Rainer Dinkelacker, who returned to Germany after his contract expired. Dinkelacker is responsible for turning Itumeleng Khune into the superstar he is.

Da Cruz may be in the country to prepare for Nabi’s arrival, but he will have to wait a bit for the Tunisian to arrive.

Nabi is expected to be the new Chiefs coach and will be announced after his side contested the Throne Cup final.
