Former Kaizer Chiefs coach Ernst Middendorp has already found a new club, with Ethiopian side Saint George Sports Club announcing the German tactician as their new head coach.

Middendorp was sacked by Chiefs after Amakhosi let the title slip from their grasp on the final day of last season.

The 61-year-old has already addressed the media in Ethiopia and said he was aware of the high expectations at the club.

"The target is clear, we haven't really discussed it furthermore but a club like Saint George going into the new season, we don’t have to discuss it, we want to be Champions," said Middendorp.

"I will work for it with the technical team, that’s our target, to be at the top at the end of the season. The club and the huge number of supporters we are all on the same page."
