Pitso will be Bafana coach

Johannesburg - Pitso Mosimane will be confirmed as Bafana Bafana’s new coach on Thursday, according to sources at Kickoff Magazine.

As expected, the man who assisted outgoing coach Carlos Alberto Parreira and his predecessor Joel Santana will be given the task of leading the national team to the 2012 African Nations Cup, as well as the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Also in the running was Gavin Hunt who, after winning three successive Absa Premiership titles with SuperSport United, was many people’s favourite to replace Parreira, but it seems the SAFA bosses have opted for continuity instead.
