With the former Sundowns coach bringing along his own technical team, there have been questions raised whether he should also have a Moroccan assistant.
Mokwena didn’t dismiss the idea and explained that he has given his recommendation to the club’s management and it’s now up to them to make a decision.
“The president knows my opinion, it’s a bit internal, so I’ll leave it to the club,” he said.
“In every club when we leave – we want to be here forever, but we know we’re going to leave – we have to leave with some form of investment for the country, so that the work continues, because we’ve got a very young squad.

“We need a technical team that can continue from us after our period, so it’s important that we have a local [coach]. But that’s the process for the management, it’s a question for the management and the board.”
