Hossam Hassan could be set for a swift return to club management after Mamelodi Sundowns made an approach for the former Egypt coach.
The South African side have placed the Egyptian at the top of their managerial shortlist and have presented him with a concrete offer, according to Goal.com. The move comes after Mamelodi Sundowns’ defeat by USM Alger in the African Super Cup.
Hassan left his position with the Egypt national team a few weeks ago and has not yet decided whether to accept the proposal. He has asked for a short period to consider the offer before making a final decision.
Taking charge of Mamelodi Sundowns would give Hassan a significant new challenge, with the coach preparing to weigh up a move into the demanding South African league.
The club are regular contenders in the CAF Champions League and are regarded as one of the leading teams on the continent.
