With his contract coming to an end at the end of June, talk about McCarthy's future has grown increasingly louder.

Not for the first time has McCarthy's name been mentioned among the possible candidates to take over the vacant Chiefs head coaching role.

McCarthy has spoken on possibly taking over at Amakhosi, revealing that he would be open to making the switch or at least give it some thought owing to the magnitude of Chiefs.

"Not many coaches in the world say no to institutions. Manchester United is an institution. Real Madrid is an institution. Bayern Munich is an institution," McCarthy told Robert Marawa on 94.7.

"Look, Vincent Kompany is gone to Bayern Munich, he is gone to join an institution. And I think Kaizer Chiefs you can safely say that Kaizer Chiefs is also an institution. It's a great club. It's a club that I'll always have a lot of love for. Because it's my local team, my team in South Africa that I supported as a kid. Loved the Black and Gold, everything Kaizer Chiefs.

"Unfortunately, I've never had the pleasure to play for them, or to coach them. I can't really speak on others but if the opportunity comes, if the opportunity arises or anything, of course you would have to sit down and think about it because like I said, you don't say 'no' to institutions," he said.

McCarthy's contract with the Red Devils reportedly comes to an end on June 30 this year.
