Orlando Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou may remain with the club for another season after achieving a treble in his first year.
The 47-year-old manager expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the club’s technical staff and support team following a successful campaign.
Over the past week, there have been speculations regarding Ouaddou’s future. He mentioned feeling tired and stated that he would take some time to reflect on whether to continue as the Pirates‘ coach.
On Wednesday, he shared a post on Instagram, thanking his technical team and suggesting that he might work with them again next season.
“To my incredible and dedicated Staff, Ouaddou said on Instagram
“I am writing these few words from the bottom of my heart to send you my most sincere congratulations and my deepest thanks.
Thank you for your hard work, your invaluable expertise, your constant dedication, your sacrifices, and, above all, for your boundless love for football and for our club, the Orlando Pirates.”
Ouaddou set to continue as Pirates coach
The Moroccan coach hinted that he would remain with the Buccaneers next season.
“As evidenced by the wonderful memory of our victorious crew in those photos, we have accomplished a monumental amount of work this season,” Ouaddou added.
“Together, we have put an end to a 14-year drought. Like true pirates, we have sailed every sea and ocean, braving the storms, to finally bring the treasure home!
This season, we managed to make our wonderful (and oh so demanding) fans deeply happy. I wholeheartedly hope that we continue to bring this immense joy into their daily lives next season.”
But for now, I ask you to rest well and enjoy your families to the fullest. I expressly need it myself! Disconnect and recharge your batteries because I will need you again to carry out a special mission when we return: to go and recover another massive Treasure at the CAF, without letting anyone steal the one already sitting in our cave!,” Ouaddou said via his Instagram page.
