Pirates announce big surprise of Kjell Jonevret as new coach

Orlando Pirates have announced Swedish-born coach Kjell Jonevret as the man to steer the Buccaneers ship.


The announcement was made by club chairman Irvin Khoza at a press conference at Rand Stadium on Monday morning.

Jonevret replaces Muhsin Ertugral, who left the job following a 6-1 drubbing by SuperSport United in November last year.

Jonevret will be assisted by Harold ‘Jazzy Queen’ Legodi.
