Chippa United chairman Siviwe Mpengesi has revealed Rhulani Mokwena is close to sealing a permanent move from Orlando Pirates to the Port Elizabeth side.
Mokwena joined Chippa United as a Pirates loanee in March and took charge of the 0-0 draw away at Bidvest Wits before football was suspended in South Africa due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Tasked with saving 12th-placed Chippa from relegation, the coach is faced with what could be a huge task as his side is six points above basement side Black Leopards.
