Fabio Nuno set to join Raja AC coaching staff from Zamalek
Raja Athletic Club are set to strengthen their technical team with the expected arrival of Portuguese coach Fabio Nuno, who is poised to join the coaching staff of newly appointed head coach Lassaad Chabbi Nabi as preparations intensify for the upcoming season.
Nuno is currently without a club after the expiration of his contract with Egyptian giants Zamalek SC. While speculation continues regarding his future, there has been no official communication from Zamalek concerning a contract renewal, opening the door for a move to Morocco.
The Portuguese tactician earned widespread recognition during his time at Zamalek, where he played an influential role behind the scenes in the club’s Egyptian Premier League title-winning campaign.
His tactical input and analytical work were considered key components of the team’s success throughout the season.
Sources indicate that Nuno has already begun work ahead of his anticipated appointment, with the coach reportedly analyzing Raja’s next fixture against Union Touarga.
The early involvement highlights Raja’s determination to hit the ground running as the club looks to improve its fortunes under a new technical setup.
The expected addition of Nuno is viewed as a significant boost for Raja, bringing valuable experience from one of Africa’s most competitive leagues.
His expertise in match analysis and preparation is expected to complement Nabi’s coaching philosophy as the Green Eagles seek to challenge for domestic honours.
Meanwhile, attention is also focused on Nabi, who is scheduled to oversee his first training session as Raja head coach later today. The session will mark the official beginning of his tenure at the Casablanca-based club following his recent appointment.
With a new head coach in place and reinforcements expected within the technical staff, Raja are moving swiftly to lay the foundations for a fresh chapter.
The club’s immediate focus will be on preparing for the clash against Union Touarga, with supporters hopeful that the new-look coaching team can guide Raja back to the summit of Moroccan football.
