Chippa United have announced the re-appointment of head coach Dan Malesela.

The Chilli Boys dispensed with Lehlohonolo Seema after a poor start to the season before announcing Luc Eymael as his replacement.

However, public uproar over the controversial end to Eymael's tenure with Young African's in Tanzania led to a reversal of that decision - leading club owner Siviwe Mpengesi to turn to Malesela for a third time.

Malesela was only just sacked from his job as TS Galaxy as their indifferent start to life in the South African top-flight.

Part of a statement from Chippa read: "Chippa United Football Club are thrilled to announce the return of Dan Malesela in the senior Head Coach position.

"Malesela will be in charge until the end of this campaign with an option of another season.

"The Club aspirations are on a top half finish in the DStv Premiership campaign."

Mpengesi added: "We are very excited to have 'Dan Dance' back in our Club structures. He has always been well liked by our different supporters' branches and we did not hesitate to link him back with the Chilli Boys when that opportunity presented itself."
