Following his departure as Uganda national team coach, coach Milutin Sredojevic has dropped a hint that he is on his way to a new job.

The coach has been linked with a move to South African Premier Soccer League side, Orlando Pirates.

Talking on his Twitter account, the Serbian manager parted ways with the Cranes after he was owed salaries.

Sredojevic parted ways with the Cranes on Saturday over unpaid wages and FUFA has admitted it owes the Serbian US $54,000, and says it has plans to clear the debt.

The coach is seen as a perfect replacement for Kjell Jonevret and his resignation fuelled speculation that he is on his way to the Soweto giants.

Sredojevic was on the Pirates roster back in 2006 and was axed after leading the side for just 26 matches.
