Following the side's latest defeat, Wydad Athletic Club's position on head coach Rulani Mokwena has reportedly been revealed.
The South African tactician has not had the ideal start to life in north Africa, with his new team winning just three of their seven Botola Pro 1 matches so far this season.

The Red Castle have also drawn two games and lost two, with the team suffering a 2-0 defeat to COD Meknes on Wednesday evening.
In that match, Mokwena's side gave away two penalties that both resulted in goals, with opposition manager Abdelhay Ben Soltane highlighting Wydad's "mistakes" after the game.
Wydad were also awarded a spot-kick late in the fixture, but M'Baye Niang was unable to put the opportunity away.
However, while there have whispers that pressure is beginning to mount on the South African tactician, this is not the feeling in and around the club.
An unnamed club representative who spoke to Egyptian news site Kooora has revealed Red Castle president Hicham Ait Menna's stance on the former Mamelodi Sundowns boss.
"Hicham Ait Menna is the one who signed Mokwena, and he trusts his philosophy and the work method he follows, and he knows very well that achieving the set goals takes time and improving performance also requires patience," he said.
"There is no decision by Ait Menna to dismiss Rulani Mokwena at the present time, and he informed him from Fes [a city in Morocco], where he lost to Meknes, of his renewed and absolute support.
"The president of Wydad spoke to Mokwena about the low technical level, and the need for results to improve after testing all the newcomers in the transfer market."
The Botola Pro 1 outfit brought in more than 20 players for the 2024/25 campaign, with the list of newcomers including South African Cassius Mailula, Abdelmounaim Boutouil, who arrived from Sundowns, and Brazilian starlets Arthur Wenderroscky and Pedrinho, among others.

Mokwena will be hoping he and the Red Castle's squad filled with new signings will be able to climb from their current fifth position on the league table as they look to secure a place in next year's CAF Champions League.
