• Pitso Mosimane has reportedly rejected an offer to become Kaizer Chiefs coach
• The Mamelodi Sundowns legend has been strongly linked with Amakhosi, but no deal has materialized
• Mosimane has been jobless since he left UAE club Al Wahda last year

Former Mamelodi Sundowns and Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane has reportedly declined an offer to coach Kaizer Chiefs.

Mosimane has been without a club since leaving Al Wahda in November and has been linked with several clubs across Africa, including Amakhosi.

According to Soccer Laduma, Kaizer Chiefs have made an offer to the Sundowns legend. The report adds that Mosimane's camp rejected the offer, and the 59-year-old tactician would prefer to return to the Middle East.

Mosimane has been linked with Saudi Pro League outfit Abha Club who are currently fighting relegation. He has also been linked with the Egyptian side Pyramids FC and possibly the Nigerian national team.

It is unclear where he will land, but Kaizer Chiefs fans will be unhappy with the news. Mosimane could be the one to end Chief's nine-year trophy drought.

Cavin Johnson is Chiefs' current interim coach after taking over from Molefi Ntseki, who was fired in October, just four months into his tenure.

The Glamour Boys are currently sixth in the 2023/24 PSL table, 11 points behind leaders Mamelodi Sundowns.

Mosimane agrees new deal?

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Mosimane reportedly agreed a deal with Saudi Pro League side Abha Club despite being Kaizer Chiefs' top target.
