Kawkab Marrakech appoint Reda Hakam as new head coach after Hicham Dmia exit

Moroccan club Kawkab Marrakech have officially announced a major change to their technical bench after confirming the departure of head coach Hicham Dmia and the appointment of experienced tactician Reda Hakam as his successor.

As Dmia’s tenure comes to an end, the Moroccan outfit has outlined plans for a new era under Hakam ahead of the upcoming football season.

Kawkab Marrakech in a statement confirmed that both parties had agreed to terminate Dmia’s contract. The club paid tribute to the outgoing coach for his professionalism, commitment and dedication throughout his spell in charge, thanking him for his efforts and wishing him every success in the next chapter of his coaching career.

The decision marks the beginning of a fresh sporting project as the club seeks to strengthen its squad and improve its competitiveness in the new campaign.

Shortly after confirming Dmia’s departure, Kawkab Marrakech unveiled Reda Hakam as the club’s new first-team head coach, entrusting him with the responsibility of leading the team’s technical project going forward.

Club officials expressed confidence that Hakam possesses the experience, leadership qualities and tactical expertise needed to guide the team towards achieving its ambitions.

According to the club, the newly appointed coach has wasted no time in beginning his work. Hakam has already started planning for the new season, with his immediate focus centred on reinforcing the squad during the ongoing summer transfer window.

Working closely with the club’s president and general manager, the new coach will play a key role in identifying and recruiting players capable of improving the team’s quality and addressing areas that require strengthening.

The recruitment strategy is expected to be based on building a balanced and competitive squad that can meet the club’s objectives and challenge strongly throughout the season.

Kawkab Marrakech believe Hakam’s technical vision will be instrumental in shaping the team’s identity, with the management determined to provide him with the necessary support both on and off the pitch.

The club also stressed that his appointment reflects its full confidence in his coaching philosophy, experience and ability to lead the team through an important transitional period.

As preparations for the new campaign gather pace, expectations will be high for Hakam to quickly implement his ideas, integrate new signings and build a side capable of delivering consistent performances.

With transfer activity expected to intensify in the coming weeks, Kawkab Marrakech are hopeful that the combination of a new coaching direction and targeted recruitment will lay the foundation for a successful season and help the club achieve its sporting ambitions.
