'What he did is disrespectful to many coaches' - Sead Ramovic addresses suggestions TS Galaxy are struggling because German tactician has lost fire in him after Wydad AC coach Rhulani Mokwena's departure

TS Galaxy coach Sead Ramovic has responded to claims he is failing to win matches in the PSL because he has lost his motivation to do well following Rhulani Mokwena's departure to Morocco. 

The two coaches had had a rift during the 2023/24 campaign as they continuously threw jabs at each other. 

In his recent interview, Ramovic insisted that he doesn't have time to think about Mokwena, who is now a head coach of Moroccan giants Wydad Athletic Club. 

"Let me put it this way... You work hard, you make money, and you do it for yourself, that's not life. You go out, seek people who need your help, and you make their lives better. When you realise you've changed someone else's life and because of you this person did not give up, that's the day you live, and this is me," Ramovic said on Marawa Sports Worldwide.

"I don't care about Rulani. I don't care about the 'fire' that people think we had. The only way [is that] I stand for myself, I stand for respect and I stand for what life is about. Not about this guy.

''I don't want to mention anything at all about him, because it's not worth it to talk more about him. I would like to talk about what is the most important thing in life,'' he added.

"If you can count one and one and if a guy does what he does, I don't want to mention again, you know all the history. I'm sure deeply in you, you felt ashamed also [of] what he did and I'm sure you also felt what he did is disrespectful, not only to me but to many coaches. But again, it is no longer worth [it] to talk about him. If people think I've lost fire [because of him], that's the opinion of the people.''

Galaxy are in position 15 in the PSL standings having lost their first three games of the season. However, they have progressed to the quarter-finals of the Carling Knockout over the weekend after defeating Chippa United.

Ramovic came close to reuniting with Mokwena in Morocco in winter as Wydad's arch-rivals Raja Casablanca were keen to appoint him as their new head coach, but the two parties couldn't agree on terms and the proposed move failed to materialize.

It will be interesting to see if Mokwena will respond to Ramovic's latest remarks about him. 

Galaxy will host Marumo Gallants in a PSL clash on Saturday. On the other hand, Wydad AC will visit CODM in the Botola Pro League match on Wednesday.
