Gavin John Hunt (born 11 July 1964) is a South African former football (soccer) player and coach who currently manages Supersport United.[1] He previously managed Premier Soccer League club Kaizer Chiefs. On 28 May 2021 Kaizer Chiefs released him from his contract after a string of poor results with the club.[2]

A nuggety right-back, Hunt spent almost his entire playing career with Hellenic. However, his retirement came soon because of an achilles tendon injury and went straight into coaching.

Hunt's greatest success came at SuperSport United, where he won three consecutive PSL championships from 2007-08 to 2009-10

He previously managed Seven Stars, Hellenic FC, Black Leopards and Moroka Swallows.[3]
