Moroccan defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil has officially signed a two-season contract with Wydad AC, marking an exciting addition to the team’s defensive lineup.
The central defender completed his medical examinations on Monday, paving the way for his signing on Tuesday.
Boutouil joins Wydad as a free agent, following his departure from the South African club, Mamelodi Sundowns.
This move is seen as a strategic acquisition for Wydad, which continues to strengthen its squad in preparation for the upcoming season.
Boutouil’s experience and defensive capabilities are expected to bolster Wydad’s backline, bringing more depth and stability to the team.
The 26-year-old is reuniting with Rulani Mokwena, who joined Wydad as head coach after leaving Sundowns after the 2023-24 campaign.
His decision to join Wydad reflects the club’s growing appeal to top talents from across Africa and beyond.
The signing also comes at a crucial time for Wydad as they gear up for key domestic and continental challenges.
Wydad aim to continue their tradition of excellence, further solidifying their position as one of Africa’s premier football clubs.
Fans have expressed their excitement about Boutouil’s arrival, welcoming him warmly on social media.
