Usuthu have failed to get into gear since Folz came in and losing the MTN8 final to Orlando Pirates in his first few weeks was the first issue.

Phakaaathi has learnt that the club’s management were unhappy with his team selection and set-up but decided to give him a chance.

“He has now had a ‘pre-season’ but things are not looking like they are changing for the better,” said a source.

“It is not that the team has not won, but the way they play is not convincing and I would not be surprised if he is relieved of his duties soon.”

Another source suggested that Folz may not be fired but re-deployed elsewhere in the club as rumours mount that they may be taking Manqoba Mngqithi on board.
