KickOff has learned that Durban City has shortlisted both Gavin Hunt as well as another well-travelled tactician for the vacant coaching position at the club.
Durban City are currently searching for a new coach after surprisingly parting ways with Simo Dladla, who guided the team to Betway Premiership promotion.

The relationship between the two parties came to an end last week after failing to reach agreement over a new contract.
Dladla has since joined AmaZulu FC as assistant coach to Arthur Zwane, as announced on Monday evening.
According to sources close to Durban City, Hunt is a hot favourite to take over.
"The club is searching both locally and internationally. Both Owen and Hunt have been shortlisted. Hunt looks likely to secure the position," said the source.

The former Hellenic fullback is also without a job after he was let go by SuperSport United before the end of last season due to unsatisfactory results.
