Wits FC Chief Executive Officer, Jose Ferreira, stated: "We are delighted
to have been able to secure the services of Gavin Hunt as our head coach. He
has an impressive CV not only with Supersport United but with every other club
he has coached prior to that. We have a signed a long term contract with him
and we believe that, in line with our long term vision for the club, he is the
right coach to lead the process that we have embarked on to transform our team
into a consistently competitive force in South African football.

Ferreira went on to state that: “We also want to take this opportunity to
publicly thank Clive Barker for the remarkable work he has done with our team
over the last 5 months of the season. Whilst we seldom found ourselves outside
the top 8 in the first half of the season, it was with Clive at the helm, in
the second half of the season, that we saw the quality of our players come
through and where we imposed ourselves on the field of play. Clive will always
be remembered as an important part of our initial efforts to turn things around
at our club.”
