Egyptian giants Al Ahly have confirmed that head coach Pitso Mosimane tested positive for Covid-19.

“Al Ahly head coach Pitso Mosimane has tested positive for Covid-19,” the club said on Wednesday.

“Mosimane will follow the Ministry of Health protocol for Covid-19 and will isolate himself at home.”

The 56-year-old mentor ended Ahly’s seven-year wait for the CAF Champions League crown and led the continental powers to a record ninth title in dramatic fashion when his troops defeated Zamalek in the Derby of the Century last month.

He joined Al Ahly in September, just days after leading the Sundowns to a national treble in South Africa and left in a surprising move to become the first black Sub-Saharan African Club coach of the 20th century.

He entered the annals of elite coaches on the African continent having won two Caf Champions League trophies when he led the Egyptians to their first title since 2013 last month.

Mosimane added to his Champions League title won in 2016 with the Sundowns.
