Amakhosi confirm Baxter’s departure

Kaizer Chiefs have finally broken their silence and announced they have parted ways with coach, Stuart Baxter.

FARPost reported early on Thursday that Baxter and the club have parted ways with immediate effect, with the club seemingly struggling for results.

Despite taking their time to confirm the news, Amakhosi confirmed, in a statement, on Thursday evening.

“After a series of meetings, Kaizer Chiefs and coach Stuart Baxter have come to a mutual agreement of an early termination of his contract with immediate effect.

“In his second spell with Kaizer Chiefs, Baxter has led the team in 23 matches (excluding 3 league matches in December 2021). He managed to win 9 matches, draw 6 and lost 8 of the games. The team managed to score 25 goals and concede 23 during that time.

“Assistant coaches Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard will take charge of the senior team for the remainder of the season, starting with the next match against Stellenbosch FC on Saturday, 23 April 2022. We wish him well in the future. The Club will make further announcements in due course.”
