After losing Pitso Dladla as head coach, the Golden Arrows allegedly hired Mandla Ncikazi, a former assistant coach for the Orlando Pirates, to take over. Following a losing streak, the Durban-based club is hoping to get back on track.Ncikazi is no stranger to Golden Arrows. He was an integral part of the team's fourth-place finish in the Premier Soccer League in 2020–21.

His rumored return to Arrows was made possible by Pirates' earlier confirmation that he was leaving his position as assistant to head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou to accept a head coaching position.Ncikazi reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with a monthly salary of R350,000. Keep that information under wraps until Golden Arrows makes an official announcement about the deal's duration and salary.

He will presumably succeed Dladla, who was appointed manager following Manqoba Mngqithi's departure from Arrows to play for Young Africans SC in Tanzania. Dladla got off to a good start, winning all six of their matches. The fact that Arrows won the MTN8 against Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns gave their fans reason to be optimistic. Their performance deteriorated thereafter, and they allegedly lost five straight games.

Because of that pressure, we decided to switch coaches.Ncikazi may be able to adapt fast to the club's culture and South African football because of his familiarity with both. Restoring faith among the players, establishing a pattern of consistent performance, and restoring the team's winning streak will be his top priorities. He must also evaluate his team and decide on a play style that works with their current roster.

He would have two years to contribute to the club's objectives under a confirmed deal, but fans will be hoping for a dramatic leap in performance in the near future. Arrows viewers are hoping he brings stability with his return. A lot of eyes have been on the reported salary, but ultimately, his performance will determine how long he stays with the club.
