Richards Bay FC are understandably set to re-appoint former head coach Pitso Dladla amidst growing uncertainty surrounding the future of current manager Dimitar Pantev.
The Natal Rich Boyz have endured a nightmare start to their Betway Premiership campaign, sitting rooted to the bottom of the table with a meager three points from their opening nine matches.
The KwaZulu-Natal outfit initially parted ways with Ronnie Gabriel following three draws and three defeats.
However, under his successor, Dimitar Nikolaev Pantev, they collected a single point—leaving the club still searching for their first league victory of the season while they also suffered an early exit from the Carling Knockout Cup.
Sources suggest Dladla is primed for a return to the dugout as he remains unattached following his departure from Lamontville Golden Arrows.
Before his brief stint with Arrows, Dladla led Durban City to silverware as an interim coach, guiding them to an impressive Nedbank Cup triumph last season.
