Mapeza among highest paid

ZTN Sports Reporter

NORMAN Mapeza is believed to be one of the highest paid coaches in
South Africa. According to leading South African magazine Kick-off, only Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane and Bidvest Wits’ Gavin Hunt are earning well above the new Chippa United coach.

“Chippa United is among the top four clubs for the salaries they pay to coaches in the PSL, including Bidvest Wits and Mamelodi Sundowns. “Pitso Mosimane and Gavin Hunt at Sundowns and Wits respectively are reportedly taking home between R600 000 and R800 000 every month excluding bonuses, while coaches at Chippa are paid between R350 000
and R450 000,” Kick-off reported on Friday.

Mapeza’s job however is described as one of the most toxic, as owner
Siviwe Mpengesi fires coaches at will.
