Ex-Pirates coach Micho confirmed as Zamalek coach

Zamalek have officially confirmed the appointment of former Orlando Pirates coach Micho Sredojevic.


Sredojevic left Orlando Pirates on Friday night for what was described as “personal reasons,” but a Sunday World article on August 18 reported that a hotel cleaner opened a case of “sexual offence” against him ten days ago.

As reported by Phakaaathi earlier, Sredojevic was spotted arriving in Cairo on Sunday, seemingly to take up the post of Zamalek head coach. Now the Egyptian giants have since confirmed his capture.

“I have been coaching in Africa for 19 years.

“I have worked in seven countries and visited 50 out of 54 African countries‚ but today I can say that my dream has come true after taking charge of Zamalek‚” Micho was quoted as saying by KingFut.com after.

“We have a fantastic squad. The best Tunisian players‚ the best three Moroccan players‚ in addition to the Egyptian ones. The club has all the success factors.

“Zamalek is a special club that you fall in love with as soon as you enter it. I want to work hard in order to achieve the fans’ goals.”
