There have been rumours that Hunt could end up at Orlando Pirates, should Mandla Ncikazi and Fadlu Davids be let go from their duties at the Buccaneers.

Hunt recently shared a light-hearted moment with Pitso Mosimane, as the Al Ahly manager teased that Gavin Hunt should come to try his hand in the Egyptian Premier League, The South African reported.

The interaction began when Hunt took to his Twitter to post that he was missing being pitchside. Mosimane responded to the tweet, encouraging Hunt to try his luck in Egypt.

Hunt then jokingly responded that Pitso should get him a job in the Egyptian Premier League. Hunt said:

"I am dying to come there! Get me a job I am so proud of all you’ve achieved. I see the results every week so happy for you. Get that yacht ready @TheRealPitso"

Gavin Hunt is no slouch to winning titles and would be a major asset to any club. Hunt has won the Premier Soccer League title four times already and is due to head to Manchester City in the coming weeks, where he will learn from the City’s technical team.

With another disappointing season on the domestic front continuing and pressure mounting on co-coaches Mandla Ncikazi and Fadlu Davids, Orlando Pirates could be on the hunt for a new coach.

As reported by The Citizen, the Buccaneers’ management recently held a meeting with the duo of Ncikazi and Davids and told them that their future with the club was not guaranteed for the next season.

Pirates are now believed to be hunting for a coach who can unite the team once again and manage the egos. Gavin Hunt’s name has been mentioned as a possible candidate for the job, Sports Brief recently reported.
