Josef Zinnbauer has reportedly snapped up the services of one of his old players, who now looks set to join him at his new club.
The German tactician was appointed manager of Saudi Pro League side Al Wehda last month, and now, according to Kooora, he will be reunited with his former player Mohamed Al Makahasi.

During the coach's one season in charge of Raja Club Athletic, the Moroccan outfit finished top of the Botola Pro 1 table by one point as they recorded an unbeaten campaign, winning 21 matches and drawing nine of their league encounters.
He also led the side to a cup trophy, securing a domestic double to mark a very successful campaign for the Green Eagles.
Al Makahasi was a part of that dominant side, recording 33 appearances across all competitions and chipping in with a goal and two assists.
Now, it seems as though Zinnbauer is looking to his old side in an effort to help his new club assert themselves in the Saudi top flight.
It has been claimed the midfielder "gave his approval" to join the Saudi side, with an official announcement expected to be made soon.
Not only that, but reports suggest that the former Orlando Pirates head coach plans on recruiting some more of his former players.
A Kooora source stated: "There are three players other than Mohamed Al Makahasi who have been contacted, and all of them played under Zinnbauer, and the team is currently working to reach an agreement with these names."

Al Wehda, meanwhile, ended the 23/24 league campaign in 13th position – just four points above the relegation zone – and will be hoping to improve on that finish under the German manager.
