With Pitso Mosimane being owed money by Iranian club Esteghlal FC, the South African manager has reportedly threatened to walk if the club do not pay their dues, giving them a timeline as well.
The 60-year-old joined the Persian Gulf Pro League side in October last year and lifted them from the relegation battle they were embroiled in prior to his appointment.

However, for the past two months, the former Al Ahly coach has not received his wages, resulting in an off-field dispute between the manager's representatives and the club.
It is understood that his legal team had previously sent a warning to his employers, demanding that all outstanding payments be settled within 15 days.
While that demand had not been fulfilled, and Mosimane and his coaching staff had not received their money, the tactician opted to remain with the side after being assured that he would be paid in due course.
A new deadline has now emerged, as sources indicate that the club have until the end of Tuesday to meet their financial obligations to the head coach and his staff.
With the notice having been handed to the Iranian side on Monday, they have 24 hours to comply, or the contract between the two parties will be terminated.
