After several months unemployment following spell at Harbin Yiteng, I am pleased to accept a position as manager at the famed South African Football Club, Orlando Pirates.

I had offers to manage in France, Germany and China but I decided Orlando Pirates were the best step forward as they struggling a bit, currently 6th in the league but they possess one of the best squads in South Africa and could have a decent shot at the African Champions League, plus lots of trophies on offer.

Good luck with your new venture in South Africa. Always been interested to see what it's like to manage there, so will be keen to see how you do. :)
