With Gavin Hunt likely to be leaving SuperSport United at the end of the season in favour of joining Wits, speculation is rife about who will replace him at Matsatsantsa.

The Siya crew recently reported that Hunt’s move to Braamfontein was all but done, and it is highly expected that he will be in charge of The Students next season.

There have since been indications that Platinum Stars’ head coach Cavin Johnson, who has performed wonders with Dikwena this season in leading them to a second place PSL finish, could well be in line to join Matsatsantsa ahead of their 2013/14 campaign.

It is thought that there are a number of possible candidates available to take the post should Hunt leave as expected, although Matsatsantsa are said to be waiting until after the upcoming Nedbank Cup final against Kaizer Chiefs before making any decisions about the future of both their technical team and their playing staff.
