Kaizer Chiefs have announced that they have parted ways with head coach Molefi Ntseki on a mutual separation contract. The departure of Ntseki comes after the meeting that was held in Naturena on Monday morning to discuss how the two parties could resolve their problems.

The two parties opted to go different ways following Amakhosi’s run of disappointing results since Ntseki became a senior team head coach.

The former Bafana Bafana coach was in charge of a total of 13 games for the PSL Giants. Ntseki managed to win at least four, drawn three, and lost six in his stint.
