Pitso: I Never Expected This

It is rare for soccer players or coaches to make a significant mark far beyond the playing pitch in this manner and many fight hard to even prolong their careers after retiring as players. However, renowned South African coach Pitso Mosimane has become a household name locally and abroad and as such he was honoured by the University of Johannesburg earlier this week.

The former Mamelodi Sundowns and Al Ahly SC coach rose to prominence as a mentor at SuperSport United, beginning at the club as an assistant to former Liverpool keeper Bruce Grobbelaar. Mosimane has to date clinched 18 titles in his managerial career which includes three CAF Champions League trophies and the Saudi First Division with Al Ahli as well as five league crowns with Sundowns.
