Amrouche: Algerian tactician reveals why he turned down Kaizer Chiefs

The experienced coach also discusses why Amakhosi are bound to struggle against Simba SC

Adel Amrouche has revealed why he turned down Kaizer Chiefs when the club was looking to replace former head coach Ernst Middendorp.

Amakhosi dismissed German tactician, Middendorp, after his charges were beaten to the 2019/ 20 PSL title by their Gauteng rivals Mamelodi Sundowns. Several tacticians were lined up for the job, one of them being the 53-year-old who was seen as the one who could take Chiefs to the next level.

"After Middendorp's exit, Chiefs wanted me, actually they made contact and we discussed," Amrouche told Goal on Saturday.
