Chippa United are on the verge of sacking head coach Dan Malesela and replace him with former Cape Town City mentor Eric Tinkler.
The Port Elizabeth based outfit could be the first club to hit the panic button in the new season as Malesela is rumoured to be on the way out.
Despite the new 2018/19 Premiership campaign being just three rounds old, a winless start for the club could see Tinkler take over at the Chilli Boyz.
Tinkler, who has been without a job since leaving Supersport United in March due to the club’s landslide in the league after going all the way to the CAF Confederation Cup last year, could now return to the top flight football management.
