AlSO READ: Baxter to take over at Bafana Bafana
There were mixed feeling on social media about the current SuperSport United coach as he looks set to take up the rein with the South African national team for the second time, having already coached Bafana from 2004-2005.
Baxter will officially be unveiled as the head coach by Safa president Dr Danny Jordaan, after he returns to South Africa from Caf and Fifa commitments.

My only problem with Stuart Baxter is that he doesn’t stay at 1 club for more than 3 years & let’s face it, we aren’t a patient nation too. pic.twitter.com/xUxMLa8DJt
