“Last season, Nasreddine Nabi was very close to taking control of Kaizer Chiefs! This time it’s the right one,” Adala reported via X.
“Nabi, 2nd in the Moroccan championship with AS FAR (one point behind champion Raja), will be Kaizer’s coach next season.
“The Tunisian, Champion of Tanzania and finalist of the 2023 CAF Cup with Young Africans, winner of the same competition while coaching AC Leopards in 2012, will first finish the season with his current club in Morocco before leaving in South Africa.
“Nabi will be accompanied in his new mission by Khalil Ben Youssef, Ilyes Mzoughi and a Tunisian physical trainer. AS FAR will play in the semi-final of the Coupe du Trône against Maghreb Fez in a few days,” the reporter concluded.
