Raja Casablanca Overview

The South African coach has finally addressed the long-standing rumours surrounding Durban City FC chairman and his alleged tendency to interfere with tactical decisions. The former Maritzburg United boss, who is now making waves in Morocco with Raja Casablanca, has provided a rare glimpse into the inner workings of one of South Africa's most prominent football administrators.

The former Masandawana head coach has welcomed the intense title race currently unfolding in the Premier Soccer League, insisting that the neck-and-neck battle between the Brazilians and Buccaneers is exactly what South African football needs. The three-time CAF Champions League winner believes the unpredictability of the current campaign has breathed new life into the domestic game as the season reaches its climax.

The 44-year-old South African coach of the Green Eagles was left fuming after his side's title ambitions took a massive hit during a chaotic "Classico" against the CAF Champions League finalists. The match was overshadowed by scenes of violence in the stands and a series of officiating decisions that have sparked a heated debate across the Moroccan top flight.

South Africa is among the 16 teams that made it out of the initial group stage after finishing second in their pool, which had the seven-time champions Egypt who eventually topped it, alongside COSAFA duo Zimbabwe and Angola, who were eliminated. Former Buccaneers tactician hopes to see his country in the final but has branded another team as the 'most dangerous.'
