Wydad Athletic Club head coach Rhulani Mokwena has ruled out a quick return to manage a club in South Africa’s Betway Premiership.
Mokwena left Mamelodi Sundowns at the start of this campaign to Morocco where he penned a contract with Wydad. Mokwena now says his main focus is to help Wydad win trophies and perform well in the Caf Champions League but admitted missing South Africa.
“Inshallah, hopefully there are more opportunities abroad,” he told CAF TV as quoted by idiskitimes. “As much as I miss South Africa, and I love the South African people, of course and I think maybe towards the end of my career I can go back to South Africa.
“I think now is about spending some time here, learning, challenging myself and improving. But also then trying to stretch myself into bigger clubs, more challenging scenarios and learning from many other coaches and many other cultures.”
He continued: “And of course this club represents that, it’s a great opportunity. There has been some great coaches that have coached Wydad.
“And it’s only a privilege to represent the people of the winners. Wydad is a very special club and I’m falling more and more in love with this club every single day. Yesterday we had our fans at the training session and I can tell you I was close to tears when they came to support us.”
