Chiefs target gets offer from Greek club

Former Chelsea coach Avram Grant is said to be weighing up an offer from a Super League Greece side amid interest from Kaizer Chiefs.


Grant is believed to be the favourite to replace Steve Komphela at Chiefs. However the offer from Greece could see Amakhosi lose out on the coach.

“The plan for Chiefs was to have him in Naturena before pre-season training with his players, and release those he deems not good enough and recommend new quality players to be signed,” a source told SunSport.

Grant is the head coach of NorthEast United and is contracted to the club until next year.

“This has been a big issue for Amakhosi. They have a number of good quality coaches who have shown interest in the job, but their preferred candidate has always been Grant.

“Failure to get him means they will have to start afresh in analysing other applicants.”
