Mosimane down plays Kaizer talks flirts with Morocco

Amidst growing anticipation among Kaizer Chiefs fans regarding the potential acquisition of Al Ahli Saudi FC coach Pitso Mosimane, the acclaimed South African tactician has finally shed light on the speculation surrounding his future with the Amakhosi.

Mosimane, fresh from an extraordinary debut season at in Saudi Arabia with Al Ahli, where he secured promotion to the Saudi Pro League and claimed the first division title, finds himself caught in a web of uncertainty.

While Al Ahli’s president has hinted at the possibility of a future without Mosimane, the coach remains steadfast in honouring his existing contract, which extends for another year.

However, the situation is compounded by the fact that Mosimane and his staff have endured five months without receiving their salaries.

As a result, fans and media alike have begun to speculate about Mosimane’s potential return to his home country, with Kaizer Chiefs emerging as a likely destination.

Mosimane, though keeping his options open, has made it clear that a return to Africa is not his current priority.

“I don’t know. I’ll ask my agent. My agent has never informed me about Kaizer Chiefs. She has mentioned a few things at this point,” the former Mamelodi Sundowns and Al Ahly (Egypt) mentor revealed in a recent interview with PowerFM.

“Coming back to Africa isn’t easy. Sometimes, you strive to win trophies and conquer the Champions League with another team. I’ve always aspired to achieve success in North Africa, particularly in Morocco.”

As Mosimane gears up for crucial discussions with Al Ahli management in the upcoming weeks, the future of Mosimane who recently celebrated his 19th trophy, remains in limbo.
