Wydad star cruises into AFL final with R3.2m Merc

A member of the Wydad AC team that is set to take on Mamelodi Sundown in the African Football League final will be going into it in style with his R3.2 million Mercedes!

Zouhair El Moutaraji's Wydad side progressed to the last stage of the tournament after beating Tunisian side ES Tunis 1-0 in the first leg and then once more overcoming them following a tense penalty shoot out in the second.

In off-pitch matters, Moutaraji seems to do as well as his club does on it!

Whether he's heading to a practice session, rushing to attend his media duties, going to a match, or simply going to a vacation destination, he does it in the best of fashion.

He makes sure to drive in style as well! And to many, there aren't many cars that are more stylish, or appealing, than Mercedes's much-adored G-Class, or as it is colloquially known: the G-Wagon. 

In an Instagram post, the forward posed in front of a sleek black model and smiled like a proper automobile enthusiast! A car as perfectly-rounded as the G-Wagon would, however, make anyone crack a smile!

According to Car and Driver, the SUV has a fearsome turbo-charged V8 engine that produces a whopping 577BHP. With this power, the Merc can reach a top speed of 240 km/h. 

All that speed and quality, however, comes at quite a steep price. Cars.co.za prices a 2021 model at a staggering R3.2 million.

Prices vary based on the year the model was released. For example, a G-Class that was released in 2018 would cost around R1.1 million while one released in 2023 would cost over R5 million!

Football matters:

After Wydad's semi-final triumph, they are now set to take on Mamelodi Sundowns in an encounter that will decide who the best team in Africa really is! The two-legged final is scheduled to take place on 5 November and 11 November.
