Usuthu are currently in ninth place in the standings and were recently knocked out of the CAF Champions League.

Benni McCarthy was Coach of the Year

Moore told Soccer Laduma: “His time at AmaZulu was incredibly successful. He took the club to heights that they have never be in history.

“The club was written about and he ended up being the PSL Coach of the Year, and ended up being offered the Bafana Bafana job.

“He made AmaZulu FC fans dream again. At the end of the day, all of that is not up for debate, he was a huge success.”

Moore added: “Benni will see what happens. He will take some time off and spend with his family. He has been away for the last 16 months, so he will go home and spend some time with them.

“He will evaluate what comes next. If he is going to return to South Africa to manage, it must be the club that has the resources that can match his ambitions, otherwise there’s no point in coming back.

“He did it with Cape Town City, he took the club to a fifth place finish, two cup finals and won one. He took AmaZulu from relegation to all the things that they’ve achieved.

“So all those things, he has done, he has proven himself. Now, what’s next for him is a big club, with resources that will say, ‘Benni we want you for three years or so’, that wants to build, otherwise he will look abroad and that’s where he is at and we will just see what the future holds in the coming months.”
