It was a classic case of the grass not being greener on the other side by former Orlando Pirates coach JosĂ© Riveiro who broke the Buccaneers’ hearts when he dumped the club and joined the Egyptian giants Al Ahly in the off-season. Â
In his seasons at Bucs, “The Spanish Guitar” won a swamp of trophies and endeared himself to the die-hard supporters with the team’s delicious brand of football. Â
But life wasn’t as rosy up there by the Nile River, where the Ahly fundamentalists do not take any prisoners. Riveiro has now joined the unemployment queue just after a mere seven matches at the club. Â
