The Pyramids FC head coach has reacted to the news of “Jingles” taking over the South African national team. The former Mamelodi Sundowns tactician expressed his desire to reunite with his compatriot when Bafana Bafana travel to Egypt for an upcoming international fixture.

Sibusiso Zuma has backed ‘Jingles’ to take the reins of the national team, insisting the veteran tactician is exactly what Bafana need. With SAFA reportedly closing in on a deal, the legendary striker believes the coach possesses the ruthless edge needed to overhaul the squad and elevate the foundations laid by the previous regime.

The Cairo-based club's assistant coach Mohamed Nagy, famously known as Gedo, has shed light on the club's decision to hand the managerial reins to the South African tactician. Following his recent departure from Libyan outfit Al Ittihad Tripoli, the former Mamelodi Sundowns boss has quickly found a new home with the ambitious Egyptian club.

The 61-year-old South African coach could be set for a return to the Egyptian Premier League as reports link the tactician with one of the continent's most ambitious clubs. The former Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns mentor has emerged as a frontrunner for a high-profile vacancy.
