Kaizer Chiefs legend Willard Katsande says Nasreddine Nabi is the right man to take Amakhosi to the top.
The 38-year-old retired footballer believes the club will compete for top honours but success won’t come overnight. Katsande was part of the Amakhosi team that last tasted silverware back in 2015 under Stuart Baxter.
“For me, I’m 100% positive, even from the beginning when they hired the coach,” the Chiefs legend said as per KickOff.
“You need to respect what the management has done, which is to appoint the coach. We just need to support whatever we have. This is the generation that will take us [to the top].
“I’m 100% confident that the coach is going to do well, and even the new players who came in and those who have been there for a long time are also going to contribute,” Katsande added.
Kaizer Chiefs legends happy with Nabi
“The most important thing for us as supporters and football lovers is we need to be patient with the coach because football is a project whereby it’s not overnight.
Maybe for some coaches, the philosophy starts rubbing [off] on players after six months. Some hit the ground running as quickly as possible,” he said.
Amakhosi won their first official match under Nasreddine Nabi on Saturday evening against Marumo Gallants.
“But the most important thing is, can we see the positive out of everything we are trying to do,” said the Chiefs legend. “The coach needs at least four transfer windows for us to say: ‘Compete to win the league,’” added Katsande.
