A source close to Sundowns told Phakaaathi that the reason for Mosimane’s departure is the breakdown of his relationship with club president Patrice Motsepe.
“Pitso and Patrice have not been seeing eye-to-eye for some time, but what broke the came’s back was Patrice request to determine the starting line-up for tonight’s clash. Pitso lost it and told him that he was stepping down,” said the source.
Motsepe is set to lead the team tonight against Pirates.
Motsepe? A coach? Really? It has to be an April Fools’ Day story! And of course it is a joke!
