'Abdeslam Ouaddou is yet to meet Kaizer Chiefs but Mzansi football can show you flames after praise! Orlando Pirates don't care about Mbekezeli Mbokazi, we have Olisa Ndah; Where is Jose Riveiro?' Fans

The former Morocco and Fulham defender is flying high with the Sea Robbers after joining them from Marumo Gallants in the off-season transfer window, where he replaced the Spaniard tactician. He has so far won the MTN8 and the Carling Knockout and is hoping to win the Premier Soccer League and the Nedbank Cup as well.

Former Kaizer Chiefs forward Wedson Nyirenda recently praised coach Abdeslam Ouaddou's work at Orlando Pirates, where he has led the Buccaneers into what looks like a serious challenge for the Premier Soccer League title.

Nevertheless, the former Zambia coach pointed out that the squad still faces one key challenge in finding a suitable replacement for Mbekezeli Mbokazi, who has left the Soweto giants for Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire FC.
