Franco-Moroccan tactician Abdeslam Ouaddou has announced his departure from South African outfit Marumo Gallants following the closure of the campaign.
The 46-year-old trainer leaves the South African club after just three months in charge. Ouaddou was appointed March 2025, replacing Dan Malesela.
Ouddou succeeded in the task entrusted to him by the management to keep the team out of the relegation zone. Despite the teams dip in form, Marumo Gallant escape the drop at the end of the campaign.
The Moroccan coach played 12 matches with the team, winning five, drawing four and losing three.
Announcing his departure, Ouaddou said, “This statement serves to formally conclude my tenure with Marumo Gallants FC. My time with the club has been an incredibly rewarding experience, working alongside the entire organization’s dedicated personnel”
“I extend my deepest gratitude to the players, club president, and all stakeholders who contributed – both directly and indirectly – to our collective mission of stabilizing the club. A special acknowledgment goes to our incredible supporters, whose passion I’ll forever cherish”
“The Bloemfontein community will always hold a special place in my heart. I wish nothing but success for Marumo Gallants and the talented players I’ve had the privilege to work with.
As I move forward, I’m actively seeking new opportunities and welcome discussions regarding ambitious projects that present fresh challenges.”
