South African tactician Pitso Mosimane has advised Rulani Mokwena as he begins his journey as Wydad Athletic Club's new coach.

Mokwena signed a three-year contract with the Botola league side and also named four South Africans in his technical team at the club.

"I think the interviews, Rulani is always in the media. I see he is enjoying the space there. He must be very careful of that space. It's a difficult space, not an easy space. Trust me, I know it. You must be scarce from the media there [in North Africa]," the former Al Ahly coach advises Mokwena.

The former Mamelodi Sundowns coach believes his compatriot will learn faster over there in North Africa.

"He will learn fast [because] there you have to be a little bit calm; it's different, it's not like here, because once you don't do well, it becomes a problem," he added.
