Chickelday announced himself as a striker coach on social media at Pirates in early January and although the club did not make any official announcement, he was acknowledged by head coach Jose Riveiro in a couple of press conferences.
"100 percent. It's a place I fell in love with, I now tell people it's my second home, so I would absolutely love to come back," Chickelday said on"Hopefully, with Pirates but who knows, like I said I like the country, I really like the football and it's a place I would like to come and work, not just for five weeks next time to come more permanently."
The 48-year old finishing coach also explained why his stay at Pirates was short and did not rule out the possibility of working with another club in the PSL, although he revealed that he is still speaking to the Buccaneers. "Look, I'm still speaking to the club, so who knows if I'll return with Pirates or with anyone else in South Africa? I'm not too sure but it's somewhere where I've sort of got my eyes on returning and work."Obviously, I liked the style of football out there, I really liked the supporters and I just liked the people in South Africa and I think the players are really switched on and they want to learn," he expanded on the reasons why he is keen to return.
