Ertugral rejects Birds rumours

Cape Town - Muhsin Ertugral has spoken out against reports linking him to the Moroka Swallows job vacated by Zeca Marques recently.

The Birds are currently under the guidance of former Bafana Bafana striker Fani Madida, who was his assistant at Kaizer Chiefs.

Ertugral was linked with the Swallows post when Marques announced his resignation last month, but the Turkish mentor has denied being interested.

"The rumours me joining any club in SA is not true," he said in his Twitter account. "Especially Swallows. They have a great coach and a friend. Fani must be supported."

The 55-year-old has a long-standing love affair with South Africa, where he has coached five teams - including two separate stints at Chiefs and Ajax Cape Town.
