Rulani Mokwena leading the race to be named Young Africans head coach

Default 6

South African coach Rulani Mokwena has reportedly emerged as a frontrunner to take charge of Tanzanian Premier League champions Young Africans SC.

Mokwena is currently without a club after parting ways with Wydad Athletic Club before the end of the 2025/26 season.

After leaving Wydad, the 39-year-old was linked to Zamalek SC but pulled out for the vacant job. Recently, Mokwena was also linked to Pyramids FC.

According to reports, Young Africans SC are on the hunt for a new head coach following the departure of Miloud Hamdi.

The Algerian tactician recently joined Egyptian side Ismaily after guiding Yanga to a record-extending 26th league title.

Following discussions with club president Hersi Said, Mokwena is believed to have emerged as a leading candidate for the vacant post.

However, there are some concerns over whether the club can afford Mokwena’s salary demands.

That said, the former Mamelodi Sundowns coach is said to be prioritising stability, long-term vision, and professionalism over financial incentives.

He is not the only candidate in the running, with ASEC Mimosas boss Julien Chevalier also understood to be on the club’s shortlist.

It remains to be seen which direction the Jangwani Street giants will take, but they appear to have narrowed their search to two highly respected coaches in Mokwena and Chevalier.
