Former SuperSport United‚ Kaizer Chiefs and Bafana Bafana left-back David Kannemeyer has been appointed as head coach of National First Division team Cape Town All Stars.

Kannemeyer replaces the coach he was assistant to after joining All Stars in February‚ ex-head coach Patrick Mabedi‚ who has joined Chiefs as assistant to Steve Komphela‚ according to a post on the website TheNFD.co.za’s Facebook page.
