Pitso Mosimane, the coach of Al Ahli Jeddah, has revealed that he would be open to returning as coach of the South African national team, Bafana Bafana.
Mosimane was at the helm of the national team for two years between 2010 and 2012 but parted ways with Bafana Bafana after failing to qualify for the 2012 African Cup of Nations.
Since then, Mosimane has enjoyed a remarkable career, with stints at Mamelodi Sundowns, Al Ahly and Al Ahli Jeddah. Despite his success, Mosimane’s time as Bafana coach remains a thorn in his flesh, as he was unable to win a trophy with the national team.
“Well there’s nothing wrong to do the national team again huh?” Mosimane said via his official TikTok account.
“It’s something on my plate and unfinished business because that’s the only place where I never won a trophy, so why not? Maybe it’s a thorn in the flesh for me.” He went on to say that he would love to return to the national team, especially with the 2022 FIFA World Cup giving 11 African teams a chance to compete.
