Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Siphiwe Mkhonza believes the club widely known for their dominance of South African football on and off-the-field have lost their culture.
The Amakhosi are reportedly on the hunt for a new coach and have seemingly identified Tunisian-born Nasereddine Nabi as the man to take over from Arthur Zwane.
However, having had six coaches in the past eight years doesn't bode well for a club of the stature of the Soweto giants that's hell-bent on turning back to the glory days.

"You'll start to question the integrity of the coach because the coach has the trustees around them. But again going back to Nabi and what you said on Nabi.
"I said, if you look at his success in Tanzania, very impressive success in Tanzania. I mean, double-treble. He has done so well, but again if you look at Kaizer Chiefs.
"In the last eight years, they have six coaches and those six coaches also reflect the problem is not only the (coaches)," Mkhonza told Sports Night with Andile.
Another element of the Soweto giants that's been so often criticized is the calibre of players that they bring on board as quite a few past and present haven't risen to the fore.
"It's a big turnaround for a club like Chiefs. That means it's (they're) very unstable. Chiefs have lost their culture and that's why even the recruitment policy they just sign any type of a player that doesn't fit into the way they play or the system of how they need to play," Mkhonza said.
