South African coach Pitso Mosimane has hinted that he will extend his contract with Iranian club Esteghlal FC.
The South African took charge of the Iranian giants in October but had a tough start with three defeats. However, he has gone six games unbeaten since, winning three.
“I have spoken to the club’s CEO, and he is willing to extend my contract,” he said at his post-match press conference as quoted by IdiskiTimes. “I am here and I would like to stay in Iran, but there is no contract on the table at the moment and whenever my contract is ready, I will make my decision quickly.
“Esteghlal deserved a better situation. The team’s situation has improved and the players are working hard. I have no problem staying in Iran and I have no problem with the Iranian style of play.
“I think more about football and if the conditions are good, I will have no problem. Some people said that the conditions in Iran are not good and did not recommend me to come, but I love Iran.”
