The Portuguese mentor takes over the reins from Shawn Bishop who vacated his post in June to take up a position in Portugal.
Cardoso is vastly experienced having previously worked as an Academy director at Melbourne Victory FC, a Technical Coordinator at Sporting CP, and Technical Consultant at the Portuguese FA, KwaZulu Natal SAFA Academy.
His appointment was made possible by the club's Sporting Director Flemming Berg, who played a key role in recruiting Cardoso to the Brazilians.
"I'm very happy to be here with a big team like Sundowns. I was recruited by Flemming and when we started talking about Mamelodi Sundowns I knew I had to answer the calling. Firstly, this is a notable club and I understood the vision of the Chairman, Tlhopie Motsepe, and the sporting director. I wanted to be a part of what the club is doing in advocating for youth development," Cardoso told the Sundowns Magazine.
