Kaizer Chiefs head coach Nasreddine Nabi has refuted claims that he will be sacked at the end of the season despite winning the Nedbank Cup title earlier this month.
The Tunisian has endured a difficult first year at Naturena following his arrival in July 2024, although he won over many Amakhosi fans after finally getting the better of arch-rivals Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final on May 10.
The 2-1 victory over the Buccaneers at the Moses Mabhida Stadium ended a 10-year trophy drought for the Glamour Boys, but Nabis future has been brought into question after a recent run of poor results in the Betway Premiership.
Reports emerged last week that the Chiefs hierarchy had already decided the 59-year-olds fate before the Ke Yona clash with Pirates - win or lose, the outcome would be the same.
However, Nabi insisted after the 1-1 draw at Sekhukhune United on Saturday that the speculation was false, adding that it has caused widespread confusion across the continent.
