Nasreddine Nabi: ‘Why I chose Kaizer Chiefs over other clubs’

Kaizer Chiefs are bracing themselves for a season of change, with incoming coach Nasreddine Nabi ahead of next season.

It’s no secret at this point that Chiefs will be announcing Nabi as their new coach ahead of next season.

Nabi about join Chiefs

Chiefs decided on their man in late May and went full steam ahead in securing his signature. After travelling to Morocco to convince Nabi of the project, and giving the freedom to pick his technical team. They were then able to strike an agreement with AS FAR for the early release of the Tunisian. After that, the next agreement was with the coach himself.

The agreement included allowing Nabi to stay until the Throne Cup semifinal which took place last week Sunday. The initial expectation was that he would then leave and join Chiefs regardless of the outcome. It then came as a shock when he came out to his post-match press-conference to claim he would be staying. He claimed that the job was not done and he wanted to lead AS FAR into the Throne Cup final.

With the cup final now set for Monday, Nabi is expected to join up Chiefs in early July. According to goal.com‘s Austin Ditlhobololo the Tunisian has opened as to why he chose Amakhosi over other possible suitors.

Explains why he chose Amakhosi

“I chose the Kaizer Chiefs offer because it is an honour for me to supervise a team of Kaizer’s value. And at the same time, as a Tunisian and an Arab, I have this responsibility and this opportunity, I can learn about a different culture, football and socially, which is a gain I always aspire to, without giving myself too much value.” Said Nabi as he continues to open up.

It is now only a matter of time until Nabi is officially in South African and unveiled as the new coach.
