Pitso Mosimane considering Saudi Pro League return amid Chiefs links: Report
FootballPitso Mosimane Reportedly Rejects Kaizer Chiefs Coaching Job, Amakhosi Fans React Online
- Pitso Mosimane has reportedly rejected a move to PSL giants, Kaizer Chiefs
- The ex-Al Ahly manager is still without a coaching job since leaving Al Wahda
- His reported rejection sparked reactions from AmaKhosi fans on social media
Kaizer Chiefs fans have reacted to reports claiming former Mamelodi Sundowns manager, Pitso Mosimane, has rejected the chance to coach the AmaKhosi.
The South African veteran has been heavily linked with the vacant permanent coaching role at the PSL giants since Molefi Ntseki was shown the door late last year.
Cavin Johnson has since been in charge of the club on an interim basis and has also been tipped to retain the job permanently as Chiefs begin to show some progress.
Despite Johnson's performance since taking over, some reports are still linking Mosimane and other top African coaches with the AmaKhosi.
According to a report by Soccer Laduma, the former Mamelodi Sundowns manager has decided against a move after the Chiefs tabled an offer.
The reports confirmed that the former Al Ahly coach turned down the offer in favour of remaining in the Middle East.
Recent reports confirmed that Mosimane is in talks with Saudi Pro League side strugglers, Abha Club and could agree to their terms.

"I am almost 100% sure, they offered him a Solanis or Middendorp type of a contract. Pitso is a much sought-after coach currently, so if you want him, pitch up and show up."

"When Pitso said 'show me your vision', he meant you can’t say he must win champions league and sign bo Chivavaro on his behalf. Hence even at Pirates he will decline. He wants the power to get the players he wants like he did at Downs."
