Rhulani Mokwena has revealed the thought of joining Orlando Pirates from Mamelodi Sundowns crossed his mind six months before his actual move to Mayfair.
According to Mokwena, the 6-0 loss Pirates suffered at the hands of the Brazilians in February 2017 was the turning point and motivation for him to want to help them return to their glory days.
The 35-year-old mentor said while he was on the Sundowns bench as Pitso Mosimane's assistant on the day, he couldn't enjoy the victory because of the bond he had with the Sea Robbers.
