The form Lamontville Golden Arrows mentor has now opened up on the situation, stating that there was never any approach from Chiefs and there were no discussions.
“There was never any discussions with Kaizer Chiefs before,” he told Robert Marawa on Radio 947.
“And I hear people saying that I did not want to take the job, there ways never anything that came.
“It was always rumors that never led to anything. There was never any formal approach.”
