Since appointing Dan Malesela as the coach of the side in December last year, Mpengesi has kept the former Mamelodi Sundowns player in the position until to date.  

Speaking to Soccer Laduma in his interview in edition 993 of the newspaper, Mpengesi says Malesela is the coach he has been looking for a long time.

"Ha, ha, ha, I know I've made a lot of mistakes and I'm not even ashamed to admit it. Dan is the man I was looking for all this time – it cost me a lot of blood, sweat and money to finally find a coach like him. Funnily enough, he shares the same sentiments as me, as he says Chippa is the club he's been looking for. He was born to coach Chippa United and ours is a match made in heaven.

"He was my favourite player growing up, as he's older than me and with me supporting Pirates. I'm also glad that God used me to resurrect his coaching career because, all of a sudden, people are starting to take notice of the great job he's doing," said Mpengesi.
