Kaizer Chiefs have denied rumors that they are involved with Manqoba Mngqithi, the former coach of the Young Africans who left the Tanzanian football powerhouses without warning.The speculation started when Mngqithi's breakup sparked talks about a possible appointment at Naturena that would bring the seasoned South African tactician back to the Premier Soccer League.But the Chiefs have denied, without equivocation, that they intend to hire the former coach of Mamelodi Sundowns.

Kaizer Motaung Jr., the club's sporting director, addressed the rumors head-on, calling them "Completely lies," thereby dispelling any doubts that the rumors were true.The Chiefs are trying to build stability under their present technical leadership, and this clarification comes at the same time. The Soweto giants' recent statements of support for Fernando Da Cruz show that the club is still determined to pursue its current goals, even though they were eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup.Due to his background in South African football, Mngqithi's name has remained in the public eye. He helped build a strong Mamelodi Sundowns team that went on to win a lot of domestic titles while he was there.

Whenever conversations about coaching positions arise, his familiarity with the local football scene and expertise in tactical analysis make him an intriguing figure.Curiously, Mngqithi had previously hinted that someone had stopped him from moving to Kaizer Chiefs. More questions about whether things could change in the future and more speculation about his relationship with the club were prompted by the revelation.

But, after his departure from Young Africans, there is no official word that Chiefs plan to hire him. Reports linking the coach to a transfer to Naturena should be taken with a grain of salt, according to the club's most recent statement.As Mngqithi mulls over his next professional move following his stint in Tanzania, he faces an uncertain immediate future. Supporters who think his experience could help a team that wants more consistency are likely to be the most vocal about their interest in his next destination.

It would appear that Kaizer Chiefs are more concerned with backing Da Cruz and carrying on with their plans than with making a surprising coaching change at this time. There has been no official confirmation of Mngqithi's transfer to the Soweto club, and until more information becomes available, the rumor mill will continue to spin.
