Every South African and football fan in Africa has been wondering where Mosimane will end up next. Now we know.

“I’m happy to take a break. I’m happy to wake up at 11am and I’m happy that I’m not accountable to anybody at this point in time. I’ll get back to coaching when I feel like I want to go back,” Mosimane stated on IOL.

This means that Mosimane will step back from coaching for a bit to give himself a much needed break. So, what will he be doing in the mean time?

Well, you can take Mosimane out of football (as he chose to do) but you can’t take football out of Mosimane. Even during his ‘break’ he will be focusing on developing the youth of SA with The Pitso Mosimane Soccer Schools (PMSS).

“Sometimes you have to take a step back. Big coaches like Pep Guardiola have done that. Carlo Ancelotti has done that. Zinedine Zidane has done that. He won three Champions League titles but he’s not coaching now,” added Mosimane.

He will return and when he does you can expect a huge announcement right here on The South African.
