Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane has hit back at what appeared to be a jab directed at him by Mamelodi Sundowns assistant coach Rhulani Mokwena.
Mokwena was rumoured to be on his way to Al Ahly as an assistant to Mosimane who left the Brazilians this week to join the Red Devils on a two-year deal which runs until 2022.
However, the 35-year-old mentor released a statement, indicating that he will be staying at Sundowns because he was 'loyal'.
