Former Chiefs-Linked Coach Misses Out On Top Job

Former Chiefs-Linked Coach Misses Out On Top Job

Wydad Athletic Club are reportedly trying to secure Nigeria's former manager's services.

A coach, who was linked with Kaizer Chiefs, is reportedly surprised to have missed out on the chance to manage one of Africa's biggest clubs.

Jose Peseiro is currently a free agent after parting with the Nigerian national team after losing to Ivory Coast in the Africa Cup of Nations final.

However, reports suggest that the Portuguese tactician was one the candidates to replace Josef Zinnbauer who has joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Wehda.

TS Galaxy coach Sead Ramovic was seemingly the front-runner for the role but talks had broken down earlier this week.

Raja have since appointed Bosnian Rosmir Zviko as the new head coach for next season.

According to LeSiteSPortInfo, Peseiro was surprised to see the Moroccan champions announce their new coach while he was still waiting for a response from the club about his conditions about taking over.

The report added that revealed that Peseiro was waiting until Friday to get a response after the two parties had agreed on a 48-hour deadline to make a decision.

The former Super Eagles was linked with a move to Chiefs a couple months ago, but the Soweto giants have since appointed Nasreddine Nabi who was AS FAR's coach last season.
