I know nothing about Pirates job-Keshi

 STEPHEN Keshi, has laughed off reports linking him with South Africa's Premier Soccer League (PSL) side, Orlando Pirates.
Earlier reports had suggested that the ex-African Coach of the Year was set to pen a deal with the Soweto giants.
NaijaSportsXtra gathered from an SA wire source, after the 'Big Boss' stated that: “No, I have no idea on that. There has been no contact with me,” said the Nigerian legend.
While Keshi has claimed to have had no contact with Pirates, he did, however, state that he would welcome an opportunity to coach in Mzansi.
“Yes I hope to coach there someday,” he concluded.
 
 Keshi, who guided Nigeria to win its third AFCON trophy in South Africa was shown the exit door by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) last year following a report that he had applied for the Elephants of Ivory Coast top job.
He was subsequently replaced by Sunday Oliseh who later resigned with less than a year as the national male team coach.
