South Africa

Assuming the role of Kaizer Chiefs head coach in 1983, Casares steered the Amakhosi to that year's Datsun Challenge,[2] but had an enmity with former coach Banks Setlhodi and poor league results which eventually got him dismissed.[1] The Argentine was also unpopular with the Kaizer Chiefs players who questioned his qualifications.[2]
