As noted by Goal, the club’s president said they would decide whether Mosimane would stay at the side because their ambitions were greater.

Sports Brief looks at four teams that Jingles could coach next.

Nigeria

The South African coach has surprisingly been linked with a national team job, and it’s not Bafana.

Own Goal Nigeria reported that Mosimane has been linked with the Super Eagles coach. José Peseiro is currently the side's coach, but his contract expires in June 2023.

Kaizer Chiefs

Arthur Zwane currently coaches Amakhosi, but 10111 is under fire at the Soweto giants.

Fans want Zwane gone after a poor first season in charge of the side, and a former player believes Pitso is the right man for the job. As noted by Soccer Laduma, Junior Khanye has urged his former side to give Mosimane a contract to coach the team.

Raja Casablanca

Mosimane has also been linked with the former three-time CAF Champions League winner, Raja AC. The side are sixth in the Moroccan league and will be looking to return to their glory days.

As noted by The South African, Raja have since rubbished reports that they are in talks with Mosimane.

Wydad Casablanca

Mosimane has also been linked with another Moroccan side, defending CAF Champions League winners, Wydad Casablanca, Kick Off reported.

The Moroccan side recently parted ways with their coach and appointed Sven Vandenbroeck. The Belgian’s success or failure will be defined by how he finishes the season.

Wydad are second in the race for the Botola Pro 1 with seven games to go. Wydad are in the tournament's final once again and will play Mosimane’s former side, Al Ahly.

Fans want Pitso at Chelsea

Imagine Pitso Mosimane coaching in the English Premier League.

Many fans want to see the South African lead a big team to glory, especially given Chelsea’s horrendous run of form.

Supporters have taken to social media to call for Chelsea to sack Frank Lampard and appoint Mosimane to turn things around, Sports Brief reported.
