- Pitso Mosimane is looking for a new club after departing UAE's Al Wahda
- The former Mamelodi Sundowns boss has been linked with Kaizer Chiefs
- A new report is suggesting he could be considering the Middle East again
Former Mamelodi Sundowns coach, Pitso Mosimane is reportedly in talks with a Saudi Pro League side amid links with Premier Soccer League club, Kaizer Chiefs.
The South African tactician has been without a managerial job since leaving the United Arab Emirates league side, Al Wahda, in mid-November last year.
Several reports have linked the former SuperSport United coach with a return to the PSL in his home country, with the AmaKhosi the favourites to poach him.
Despite strong links with the Glamour Boys, Mosimane could be set to return to the Middle East, according to a report by iDiskiTimes.
Abha Club are currently struggling in the Saudi Pro League and risk being relegated from the top flight as they languish in 17th place.
Abha sacked Czesław Michniewicz and Yousef Al Mannai this season and are currently being led by interim coach, George Timis.
Mosimane is reportedly being seen as the man to take over at the club's dugout for the remaining 15 games of their SPL season.
The South African coach had previously confirmed he would be ready to take up a new challenge after spending the festive holidays with his family.
If Mosimane joins Ahba Club, it would be his second spell in Saudi Arabia after managing Al Ahli in the lower tier and leading them to promotion.
Under the South African's mentorship, the Jeddah-based club reached the top flight before the coach resigned due over allegedly not being paid.
Broos, Mosimane disagree over European coaching
Sports Brief previously reported on Mosimane revealing his European ambitions as he appealed for clubs to utilise managers based on their merits.
However, Bafana Bafana coach, Hugo Broos has rebutted the claims that clubs from the European continent were not interested in African managers.
