“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,” said Chiefs in a statement. Baxter, 68, was under pressure after a poor season on his return for a second spell at Amakhosi. Chiefs are set to end the campaign trophy-less, and currently sit 18 points behind Mamelodi Sundowns in the DStv Premiership title race.

In a short statement published on their website, Chiefs added that Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard would take charge of the team in a caretaker capacity until the end of this season. “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,”
