While the club are yet to confirm the departure of Nabi, the Tunisian himself confirmed he has left the club.
Nabi took charge of the Glamour Boys at the beginning of last season, staying in South Africa for just over 13 months.
According to the latest reports, French coach Jerome Arpinon is interested in leading the Amakhosi.
Arpinon, 47-years-old, is currently unemployed after parting ways with Belgium third division side RE Virton late last year.
Previously, he coached French Ligue 1 side Nîmes Olympique back in 2020/21. Nîmes picked up just four wins in 22 matches under him, and were subsequently relegated.
“Jerome Arpinon is very interested in the Kaizer Chiefs job. His representatives are finalising things before officially sending his CV to the club,” an insider told Soccer Laduma.
“They believe Amakhosi would be a perfect project for him, and he wants to be considered should there be a change in the technical team.”
