Wydad Casablanca are considering the acquisition of Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup tournament.

The Moroccan giants is one of the four clubs expected to represent Africa at the impending Club World Cup to be staged in the USA next month.

Having being paired in Group G against Manchester City, Juventus, and Al-Ain, the Moroccan outfit are seeking to strengthen their squad to make a meaningful impact at the tournament.

According to Marca, Wydad Casablanca have set sights on securing the services of the former Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus icon for the upcoming tournament.

Currently, Ronaldo is facing an uncertain future at Al Nassr as his contract runs out on June 30, 2025. Despite being offered a new contract extension, the 40-year-old has yet to sign a new deal with the Saudi Pro League giants.

As he contemplates on his future, the ambitious African outfit has been linked with a potential move for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.

Ronaldo’s performances has overshadowed the club’s trophyless campaign, scoring 33 goals and providing 4 assists in 39 appearances across competitions.

With his wealth of experience, he would be a great addition to the Wydad Casablanca squad, who are desperate to make impact at the Club World Cup.
