On Sunday it was formally announced that Pitso Mosimane would be joining Al Ahli Saudi three months after parting ways with Egyptian giants Al Ahly.
Recently, Pitso Mosimane clearly indicated that he had no intention to rush into another job after leaving Al Ahly, but it increasingly appeared that he was starting to feel ready to scratch the “itch” of getting back into a frontline coaching gig.
Several weeks ago Mosimane finally received his CAF Pro Licence, which was officially handed to him by South African Football Association (SAFA) president Dr Danny Jordaan.
Mosimane enjoyed a famed coaching career with Mamelodi Sundowns, and was involved as national caretaker coach for seven games in 2007. He then went on to join Al Ahly in a high-profile move, and won several titles in Egypt before prematurely opting out of his new contract.

The popular coach in fact oversaw 105 fixtures at Al Ahly, winning 68 matches, drawing 27 and only suffering 10 defeats, and he had made it clear that he would only take up a new job if he deemed it to be the correct ‘project’.
That ‘project will now come in the form of working with Al Ahli Jeddah, who were shockingly relegated from the Saudi Pro League for the first time in the club’s history after finishing 15th with just 32 points.
The club has also endured a challenging start to the Yelo League campaign this season as they lie seventh in the standings, having accumulated just eight points after five games.
