'Gavin Hunt is Kaizer Chiefs agent sent to destroy Stellenbosch! It won't be long before he moans how he can't compete with Orlando Pirates & Mamelodi Sundowns on buying new players' - Fans

The 61-year-old parted ways with the Premier Soccer League newbies, Durban City, a couple of weeks ago after falling out with the management. He has now been given another massive assignment with the Western Cape Province-outfit who have not had a good start to the ongoing 2025/26 campaign. They are currently struggling for consistency.

Former Kaizer Chiefs coach Gavin Hunt has been unveiled as the new Stellenbosch tactician, replacing Steve Barker, who left for Tanzanian Premier League outfit Simba SC.

The 61-year-old has been at the helm of the Citizens until December 1, when they parted ways with reports indicating they deferred on a tactical approach. 

Hunt has a massive task to help Stellies get off their current position in the Premier Soccer League, as well as deliver in the CAF Confederation Cup. 

Have a look at what the fans said as sampled by GOAL.
