FootballPitso Mosimane Outlines a Major Challenge in Accepting the Kaizer Chiefs Coaching Role
- Pitso Mosimane has disclosed his issue in taking up Kaizer Chiefs' vacant coaching role
- The South African manager is currently without a job since leaving UAE outfit Al Wahda
- The 59-year-old tactician has also been linked with many major clubs around the world
South African tactician, Pitso Mosimane has explained the challenge he faces in taking up the vacant coaching job at PSL giants, Kaizer Chiefs.
The 59-year-old manager is still without a managerial role since dumping UAE Pro League outfit, Al Wahda last month.
The former Mamelodi Sundowns boss has confirmed he is open to taking up a new challenge with a new team when the Christmas holiday is over.
Mosimane, in a recent interview posted on YouTube by Sunday World News, disclosed the challenge he has in taking up the Kaizer Chiefs job.
According to the veteran, it would all depend on the AmaKhosi being open to doing business with him, according to a report by Soccer Laduma.
"The issue is what are their short and long-term plans. It is like in business, it works like that. But we are also businesspeople, and also this is a career, make no mistake. Ask Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp - this is not charity, this is not which club you supported when you were young."
The former SuperSport United coach also listed what he is looking at when it comes to taking a new job as rumours continue to circulate about his next destination.
"There must be a proper plan and a proper vision, to say 'do you want this?' I can coach any team, in the country, in Africa, in the gulf, the US, Europe, but it has to be proper," he added.
