Bafana Bafana's all-time goal scorer is leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of a new job - preferably as a head coach.

Having reportedly turned down a new two-year contract from the Red Devils following the expiry of his deal at the end of June, McCarthy is said to have tested the waters with a possible move to the MLS, while talk of a return to the DStv Premiership remained rife.

Now, well-placed Siya sources have informed the crew that McCarthy could follow the likes of Pitso Mosimane in making his way to the Saudi Pro League.

According to the source, an unnamed team is said to have sounded out McCarthy as their potential head coach for the 2024/25 season.

Attempts to get a hold of McCarthy's management team proved futile at the time of publishing, though the Siya crew will continue to bring you the latest on Benni's future.

McCarthy. a UEFA Pro License holder, cut his teeth in top flight management with Cape Town City, before enjoying stints at AmaZulu and more recently Manchester United.
