Like Mourinho returning to Chelsea, I cannot close door on Orlando Pirates - Mokwena

Rhulani Mokwena insists that he has not shut himself out of a possible return to Orlando Pirates, a club he claims he is emotionally attached to.

Before joining Chippa United in early March, Mokwena led the Buccaneers in his first role as head coach of a Premier Soccer League (PSL) club last year, before being replaced by Josef Zinnbauer.

It was a difficult spell as Pirates struggled under Mokwena who is however still contracted to the 1995 Caf Champions League winners.

Using Jose Mourinho’s two stints at Chelsea as an example, Mokwena does not rule himself out of returning to Pirates in future.
