Soweto giants Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs have taken contrasting decisions pertaining to their respective coaching appointments ahead of the new season. Which appointment will prove more successful next season? Read more here ➡️
Riveiro's appointment left question marks as an unknown quantity and a surprise choice as he has only held just one head coach job in his career – which was at Finland club FC Inter Turku.
He was born in Vigo and only played in the Spanish third division for Gran Pena admitting that he wasn’t a good player so went into coaching early starting out in the lower divisions back home before ultimately moving up north to Finland. Davids has since left the club while Ncikazi will now serve as an assistant along with Sergio Almenara.
Just like Chiefs, Pirates have made a third coaching change in consecutive years having moved from Zinnbauer to Ncikazi and Davids and now Riveiro.
