Malesela has been out of work since April after Chippa United released him from his contractual obligations after the team's poor performance according to Sowetan Live.

One of the reasons he would like to coach one of the big three is that he would have the resources available to build his dream team.

Times Live reported that he has looked back on his coaching career and said that he was grateful that he got to play a part in so many players' lives.
