Celebrated South African coach Pitso Mosimane will coach Rwandan striker Patrick Mutsinzi at United Arab Emirates Professional League side Al Wahda starting 2023/24 season.

Mosimane left Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia at the end of the 2022/23 season and he has been officially signed to lead the Abu Dhabi-based club for an undisclosed length of the deal.

"The club’s board of directors welcomed Mosimane to the home of the champions, wishing him success in meeting the aspirations of the club’s leadership and management and its fans,” the statement further reads.

Rwandan youngster Mutsinzi, who played a couple of cup games for the senior team and also made some appearances on the bench in league games, could get adequate playing time in the main team and flourish under the former Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns coach.

The youngster, who was summoned by Carlos Ferrer for the AFCON qualifier against Mozambique, joined Al Wahda in January 2023 from Rwanda second tier club Heroes FC. He was the main striker of the club's U21 team scoring seven goals before the season ended.
