Scottish coach opens up on Chiefs & Pirates curiosity
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - MARCH 09: Makhehlene Makhaula of Orlando Pirates and Wandile Duba of Kaizer Chiefs during the DStv Premiership match between Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs at FNB Stadium on March 09, 2024 in Johannesburg, South Africa.
"I've always had a keen interest in South Africa. I used to play in the university with two South Africans, they used to tell me about the league at home and since then I kind of have had one eye on the league," McMenemy told"It's a place I fancy working at. I've worked in different countries, I've experienced different football concepts, mostly in south-east Asia.
The Scottish mentor was reportedly on the verge of joining the Namibia national team last year in November after he emerged as a preferred candidate to replace Collin Benjamin."It was an agent that proposed to me: 'Would you be interested?' I saw the country and I've always been attracted to work in Africa, it seems like a really fascinating place. It was an attractive proposition.
