Al-Ahli Saudi coach Pitso Mosimane says South African players need to understand playing abroad doesn’t only mean being in England or the other leagues in the top six in world football.
South Africa's legendary three-time Caf Champions League-winning coach says players need to look at playing in other countries that can boost their development while earning a lot of money compared to home.Mosimane believes most South African players think of England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Holland as potential destinations.
“I think the players don’t know what is happening outside, they only say 'Europe', whereas there’s North Africa,” Mosimane said.“Second, there’s the Gulf here and there’s also Europe. There’s the Europe of the top six leagues in the world and there’s the Europe where Patson Daka started [in Austria], where Sadio Mane started [in France's Ligue 2].“There are also those [countries] in Europe of Scandinavia and Belgium.
The former Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns coach said players’ agents need to play their role by pointing footballers in the right direction and ensuring they get deals with clubs in leagues where they will earn game time.
