Former Orlando Pirates co-coach Fadlu Davids has been appointed Lokomotiv Moscow assistant coach.
Davids guided Pirates to the 2021-22 Caf Confederation Cup final as a co-coach alongside Mandla Ncikazi and he has now secured his first job outside South Africa.
He has reunited with Lokomotiv head coach Josef Zinnbauer, who worked with him at Pirates. The duo guided the Buccaneers to the 2020 MTN8 title.
“It’s a major honour being a part of such a huge institution of Russian football,” said Davids on his Twitter feed.
“Lokomotiv Moscow is well known amongst South African fans as it was the club of the late Jacob Lekgetho many years ago. I am here to be part of the future success of the club and it all starts today.”
