'We’ll welcome him as if he never left the club.” HadebeSazieso
Thapelo Morena showing off his tattoos during a Mamelodi Sundowns media open day at Chloorkop on September 20, 2019.Mamelodi Sundowns’ utility player Thaphelo Morena has described the return of assistant coach Rulani Mokwena to the club as a “big boost”.Mokwena was a part of the technical team headed by incumbent coach Pitso Mosimane that led Sundowns to the Caf Champions League in 2016.
Sredojevic departed early in the season last year, leaving Mokwena to take charge of the Bucs as caretaker coach until December.The arrival of German coach Josef Zinnbauer saw Mokwena leaving Bucs on loan to join Chippa United as head coach in February, but his arrival in the Eastern Cape coincided with the outbreak of the coronavirus.Mokwena’s less than six-month stay at Chippa was not extended and by the time it finished at the end of June, his contract at Pirates had also expired.
The Brazilians are also very much in the league race where a tussle between them and league leaders Kaizer Chiefs is likely to light up the PSL in the coming weeks.“I think for us it’s just to play each and every game the way it comes and make sure that we collect maximum points and we’ll see at the end of the season what’s going to happen.”
