With Cardoso's future in the spotlight, Mamelodi Sundowns are being linked to a shocking move involving Egyptian legend Hossam Hassan.According to reports, a Moroccan marketing firm allegedly suggested the seasoned tactician Hossam Hassan—a former coach of the Egypt national team—to the South African giants Mamelodi Sundowns.As the club weighs its options in the face of mounting criticism of current coach Miguel Cardoso's performance, Egyptian journalist Abdel Nasser Zeidan reports that a marketing firm based in Morocco formally pitched Hassan's name to Sundowns.The news has generated a lot of buzz, especially considering Sundowns' status as one of the most prominent football clubs in Africa and their ongoing drive to become the best in their home country and across the continent.

Hassan has an outstanding resume that includes both playing and coaching, making him one of the most recognizable names in Egyptian football. The former striker had a stellar career representing Egypt on the field and went on to become one of the most beloved figures in Egyptian football before moving into management.Before taking over the Egyptian national team, he coached multiple Egyptian clubs and guided the Pharaohs on crucial international assignments.The Sundowns are reportedly taking this strategy at a time when they are feeling pressure to get back to their old ways after what many see as a drop in performance.

Supporters and observers are keeping a careful eye on the club's trajectory, which has sparked speculation about Cardoso's future.Sundowns officials were supposedly very excited about the Hassan-related proposal, as reported by Zeidan. The level of interest from the club and the possibility of formal negotiations are, however, still unknown.Keep in mind that Sundowns have not yet made a final decision about their coaching position, despite the reported proposal.As rumors about a potential managerial change gain steam, Cardoso is currently the focus of attention.A huge step forward for South African and African football would be the possibility of the Egyptian tactician's arrival, should he become a serious contender in due course.
