Exclusive! Eymael Comments On Chiefs Link

Luc Eymael has commented on being linked with Kaizer Chiefs again, speaking exclusively to the Siya crew.

Following the latest changes in the Chiefs technical team, Eymael's name has come up among those of coaches linked with the Soweto giants, sources have indicated.

Chiefs will go to their next match this weekend against Golden Arrows with Cavin Johnson in charge after he replaced Molefi Ntseki as the head coach earlier in the week though on an interim basis.    

Several coaches have been linked with Amakhosi in the last few days, including Nasreddine Nabi, Pitso Mosimane, Manqoba Mngqithi and Muhsin Ertugral, though it is believed that the club is committed to giving Johnson the support he needs to turn the team's fortunes around.

Eymael, who won the Nedbank Cup in 2018 with Free State Stars, is one of the coaches likely to be recommended to the club, according to sources.

"Luc Eymael will have his CV forwarded to Chiefs. He is an experienced coach whose advantage is that he's got an understanding of South African football. The coach has always said he's got unfinished business in the PSL, and he loves South Africa very much," said the source.

Five years ago, after he led Stars to cup glory, the Uefa Pro Licence holder had been linked with Chiefs before the club decided to appoint Giovanni Solinas.

Eymael was recently linked with Richards Bay, as well as AmaZulu prior to the start of the season.

Apart from Ea Lla Koto, the 64-year-old previously coached Polokwane City, Bloemfontein Celtic and Black Leopards in Mzansi.

The Belgian mentor had previously signed with Chippa United although the deal was later cancelled amid controversial comments from his previous employment at Tanzanian club Young Africans.

Contacted for comment, Eymael confirmed his interest in the Chiefs job though he respects the club's decision in appointing Johnson. 

"Of course, I would be interested if I got an offer but for now, I know they have given the job to Cavin Johnson," Eymael told the Siya crew.
