JS Kabylie Overview

The Libyan heavyweights have confirmed that they are in the middle of a high-stakes pursuit to pry the 38-year-old away from MC Alger. Despite the South African tactician being currently employed in Algeria, the Tripoli-based side have identified him as the primary candidate to lead their ambitious sporting project following the departure of Khaled Ben Yahia.

The South African coach has come out swinging against his detractors following a frustrating period for MC Alger. The former Mamelodi Sundowns tactician, who has often been compared to Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola due to his tactical sophistication, insisted on his own unique coaching identity after his side failed to secure maximum points in consecutive league outings.

After elimination from the continental competition, the South African tactician has continued to face challenges as his charges are yet to win. The Algerian outfit has not won in the last three games, and if the trend continues, it will put the former Masandawana coach under pressure. As the winless run extends, the 38-year-old tactician must come up with a plan to steady his boat before it gets worse.

The South African tactician had an ambition of having a successful debut campaign with the Algerian giants. However, one of his targets will not be achieved after the Algiers-based outfit was eliminated from the continental inter-club competition. After suffering the CAF setback, upon resumption of the domestic duty, Mokwena's club was handed another one.
