Brazilian football manager Alexandre Gallo is reportedly at the top of Kaizer Chiefs' list of head coach candidates.
Pitso Mosimane is the only manager better than Gallo. That depends on what is said to be the order of the final candidate list.
It was revealed on Thursday that Mosimane and Manqoba Mngqiti were on the list.
Brazilian coach is number two at Kaizer Chiefs
Officials have recently revealed the name of the foreign player that the Chiefs most desire.
“You know that among the five shortlisted players is the Brazilian coach Gallo. But he is not the first choice. The first choice is obviously Pitso (Mosimane). They are looking at local coaches first, with Mosimane at the top of the list, but if they are unable to sign him for other reasons, Gallo would be their second choice. We're talking. As of now, he is also on the shortlist,” a source told Soccer Laduma.
However, Kaizer Chiefs' target could be problematic.
“The problem Chiefs have with the coaches they really want is that they are currently with another team and either those clubs offer new contracts or the contracts themselves are expensive. It's not going to be easy because it's either, but that's what the coaches want.'' A second Soccer Laduma official said.
“Coach Alexandre (Gallo) is on the shortlist, but I think Pitso Mosimane is his only main challenge at the moment,” the source added.
keep an eye on things
A separate source revealed that the club is closely monitoring the coach's current employment situation.
“I think the reason for the delay in selecting and announcing a new manager is because these two managers are still under contract with their current clubs and they don't want to violate their contracts,'' a second Siya source said. Told.
“Both South African coaches are still coaching other teams and Chiefs are also waiting for their contracts to expire.
“However, it is believed that both Coach Pitso and Coach Mancoba will be included in the shortlist of five coaches,” the source said.
Kaizer Chiefs are yet to confirm the existence of the shortlist.
