This comes after they settled their disagreements over the recruitment policy and other related matters.

It is believed that Hunt wants to have a free hand in deciding the players who will be brought in and those the club must release. This made the management uncomfortable because it meant a change in the club’s long-standing policy.

“It simply meant the club had to change a template that has worked all these years. That was the conundrum for both parties. But I think they have ironed out the issues because you can see the coach is happy again.

“I don’t yet if he got his way, or they found a compromise that leaves both parties happy but they have found a workable solution for now and plans are afoot for next season already,” said the source.

Meanwhile, as reported earlier, Richards Bay forward Khanyisa Mayo has become hot property with a number of DStv Premiership teams, including Chiefs, said to be sniffing around on his availability.
