Mamelodi Sundowns president Patrice Motsepe has reportedly called an emergency meeting at Chloorkop after reports emerged that coach Pitso Mosimane is set to resign and join Al Ahly.
A TimesLive report kicked off a media frenzy on Wednesday morning with Mosimane’s exit now looking likely despite Sundowns not yet making an official statement on the matter.
Sources in Egypt say that a deal with Ah Ahly is on the table with Jingles set to come in and replace Rene Weiler.
Now a KickOff.com report says that Motsepe has called a meeting at Chloorkop to discuss a way forward with regards to the latest developments.
"The president has called an emergency meeting to discuss the issue of the coach," a source at Sundowns reveals. "The club is expected to release a statement this afternoon."
With the news reverberating across the continent, Sundowns are expected to sort the matter out quickly with the new season just weeks away.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
