South Africa giants Orlando Pirates are in the hunt for a new coach as substantive trainer Jose Rivero is set to depart the club.
The Spanish gaffer is expected to end his stint with the South African club at the end of the current campaign, ending his three-year stint with the team.
According to reports, Orlando Pirates could make a move for Carlos Nodar Paz, the current assistant trainer of Jose Rivero.
While Pirates are expected to launch a thorough process to appoint a new head coach ahead of the 2025/26 season, insiders have revealed that continuity could play a key role in that decision.
Paz coaching journey includes stints at Spanish side Celta de Vigo alongside Riveiro, as well as ventures in India with East Bengal FC and in China with Wukan Three Towns FC.
Orlando Pirates are in contention for the Premier League and South Africa Cup competition this season.
