Kaizer Chiefs Confirm the Sacking of Coach Stuart Baxter!

Kaizer Chiefs Confirm the Sacking of Coach Stuart Baxter! This news was widely speculated and reported yesterday.

Stuart Baxter was only hired by the club at the end of the last campaign. Stuart Baxter has already been fired by the club, with seven league matches remaining.

The Scot has been hugely criticised by supporters this season for the style of play he has introduced to the team. Many feel it is as unattractive as the football Gavin Hunt and Ernst Middendorp played.

Results have also been incredibly inconsistent.

“After a series of meetings, Kaizer Chiefs and coach Stuart Baxter have come to a mutual agreement of an early termination of his contract with immediate effect.” Kaizer Chiefs said in a statement.

“In his second spell with Kaizer Chiefs, Baxter has led the team in 23 matches (excluding 3 league matches in December 2021). He managed to win 9 matches, draw 6 and lost 8 of the games. The team managed to score 25 goals and concede 23 during that time.

“Assistant coaches Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard will take charge of the senior team for the remainder of the season, starting with the next match against Stellenbosch FC on Saturday, 23 April 2022.

“We wish him well in the future.

“The Club will make further announcements in due course.”

Last season, Arthur Zwane was impressive as he was an interim coach after the sacking of Gavin Hunt. Supporters are extremely excited to see what the former player can achieve with the squad at hand.

Especially as this squad is perennially better than the one, they had last season. Kaizer Chiefs Confirm the Sacking of Coach Stuart Baxter!
