Komphela stood down as the Kaizer Chiefs tactician towards the end of last season following the Amakhosi’s defeat to Free State Stars in the Nedbank Cup semi-finals at the Moses Mabidha Stadium in Johannesburg.

The legendary Free State Stars captain, who also skippered the national side, has long coaching CV and has been at the helm of Maritzburg United, Ea Lla Koto, Platinum Stars, as well as, South Africa U23 and Bafana in a caretaker role.
