Orlando Pirates assistant coach Rhulani Mokwena says he is looking forward to his future at the Buccaneers, despite interest in his services.

The 34-year-old assistant coach has recently been linked with a move to fellow Absa Premierships teams such as SuperSport United and Polokwane City.

Mokwena says he is happy at Pirates and dismissed rumours of him leaving the club after stating his relishing his future with the Buccaneers.

‘I’ve read those [reports], but I don’t know anything about that,’ Mokwena told the media.

‘What I know is that I’m extremely happy at Orlando Pirates and I’m looking forward to the future with Pirates.’

The Pirates mentor says that if he receives any interest for his services he will leave it to the club to decide his future.

‘When I used to go shopping with my mother I used to ask for certain things, and when you asked for certain things that were not good for your health, she would slap your hand and say, “no, you have to wait a little bit; these things are not good for you”.

‘So I think there are certain things in life that we would all love to have but unfortunately, maybe we can’t afford them or they are not accessible and they are not available. That’s the story. I don’t want to talk about rumours, because if I talk about rumours, I just intensify them,’ he said.
