Pitso Mosimane back to Mamelodi Sundowns a deal as good as done as the coach smokes peace pipe with the club while Miguel Cardoso remains unsettled

Pitso Mosimane is in advanced talks with Mamelodi Sundowns.

The former Al-Ahly coach is rumoured to be heading back to Chloorkop for his second stint with the Betway Premiership defending champions.

Sundowns and current coach Miguel Cardoso have endured a love-hate relationship with a large number of Sundowns supporters seemingly against Cardoso’s appointment.

Mosimane’s return talks are gathering momentum as the coach has been reported to have buried the hatchet with the Brazilians management in their legal wrangling of late.

Sundowns are after the commission they paid Mosimane’s agent when he renewed his contract with the team yet he resigned before end of contract to join Egyptian giants Al-Ahly.

That case has been a subject of courts for the past two years but it looks like an out of court settlement has been reached.

As an out of court agreement kicks in, it is also seen as a bait to lure Mosimane back to Chloorkop as he remains a darling of the Tswane-based side.

He has been a free agent for a lengthy period with his last job being at Iran side FC Esteghlal.
