I saw a diamond in South Africa and I went alone to bring it over here, whilst no one believed in Pitso Mosimane,” said El-Khatib. No club has ever defeated Ahly by 5-0 in CCL, but only Pitso Mosimane did. Mosimane, evidently enjoying his time in North Africa, recently turned down an offer to coach the South Africa men’s national team. “Despite having only two years remaining in my deal with Al Ahly I chose to continue because I want to win the Champions League again and achieve more titles with the club. In SA, all people wanted me there but I preferred to stay with Al Ahly as it’s a big opportunity for me,” said Mosimane.
