Caf Champions League: Kaizer Chiefs are covered 'with or without Baxter' vs Al Ahly - club

The tactician was appointed to coach Amakhosi on June 9 after the exit of Gavin Hunt, but has not yet secured his work permit

PSL heavyweights Kaizer Chiefs are still optimistic about securing Stuart Baxter's work permit in order for him to be on the bench when they take on Al Ahly in the Caf Champions League final next weekend.

Amakhosi announced the return of the 67-year-old on June 9, two weeks after axing Gavin Hunt.

He signed a two-year contract with an option to extend it by a further two years, with Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard, who were interim co-coaches after being part of Hunt's backroom staff, serving as his assistants.
