Wydad 'set' to sack Rulani Mokwena

Following their draw with Olympic Club Safi in a Botola Pro League match on Wednesday evening, Wydad Athletic Club are reportedly set to announce the imminent departure of Rulani Mokwena.

A struggling Wydad shared the spoils with OC Safi on Wednesday, marking their sixth consecutive league draw, a stretch that resulted in Mokwena receiving criticism from the club's fans.

The Casablanca powerhouse remains third in the Botola Pro League standings with 45 points, trailing second-placed AS FAR Rabat by six points.

With only three games left in the season, it seems highly unlikely that Wydad will secure a CAF Champions League spot for the upcoming season, with AS FAR likely to join the league champions RSB Berkane.

Following the Red Castle's outcome on Wednesday, Moroccan publication LesiteInfo has reported that the result has prompted a meeting, which will be attended by Mokwena, the club's President Hicham Ait Menna, along with his board members.

It is said that the Wydad board of directors aims to discuss a way forward with the South African coach, with the possibility of an immediate termination of his contract.

Following the meeting, Wydad Time are now reporting that Rulani Mokwena will part ways with the Moroccan club immediately.
