Mosimane is currently without a club after parting ways with Esteghlal in Iran earlier this year.
Orlando Pirates fans have called for the appointment of Pitso Mosimane as the club’s new head coach.
On Thursday, Pirates confirmed that current head coach Jose Riveiro will leave the club at the end of the season, with his contract set to expire in June.
OPINION – Riveiro leaves Pirates in far better shape than he found them
As the news broke, Pirates fans quickly took to the social media to express their views on the announcement with some calling for Mosimane to replace the Spanish coach.
Mosimane is currently without a club after parting ways with Esteghlal in Iran earlier this year.
He is a fan favorite due to his successful tenure at Mamelodi Sundowns, where he won five league titles and a CAF Champions League trophy.
The supporters are hopeful that Mosimane’s experience and proven track record could help the club end their 12-year league title drought.
While Mosimane seems to be the fan favourite to replace Riveiro, other fans are calling for current Wydad Athletic coach Rulani Mokwena to be given another chance to lead the club.
