Former Al Ahly head coach Pitso Mosimane has lost his civil case against former employers Mamelodi Sundowns.
PITSO LOSES, TOLD TO RETURN MILLIONS OF RANDS TO SUNDOWNS
Mosimane and Sundowns had been battling it out in court for years since his departure from Chloorkop in 2020.
Sundowns wanted Mosimane and his agency MT Sports to pay back the money they received when the coached committed himself to them.
This amount, according to the ruling, amounts to R7.9 million in agents’ commission fees plus 7% annual interest from 2021.
Mosimane signed the contract extension in 2020 but walked out on it a few months later when Al Ahly came knocking for his signature.
The Kagiso-born mentor had spent eight successful years at Chloorkop, delivering a whopping 11 major trophies during his stint.
The matter was finalised by Judge Shaanaz Mia of the South Gauteng High Court on Friday.
