Premier Soccer League coaching instability

Overview

Coaches Khalil Ben Youssef and Cedric Kaze, both formerly of Kaizer Chiefs, have faced professional instability within the South African Premier Soccer League.

Initially, reports indicated that Cedric Kaze was likely to depart Sekhukhune United following a string of four consecutive losses. Simultaneously, Khalil Ben Youssef faced mounting pressure at Durban City due to poor domestic performances.

By late September, Durban City FC reportedly dismissed Ben Youssef after seven league matches, a tenure characterized by one victory, four draws, and two defeats. While Ben Youssef had successfully guided the club through the first preliminary round of the CAF Confederation Cup by defeating Burundi’s Rukinzo FC, his departure contributed to a broader trend of coaching turnover in the league.
