Wydad coach Patrice Carteron receives timely squad boost ahead of Kawkab Marrakech clash

Underfire coach Patrice Carteron has received a timely boost ahead of Wydad Athletic Club’s upcoming league encounter against Kawkab Marrakech.

The positive update concerns Hakim Ziyech, who is expected to resume training at the start of next week after progressing well in his rehabilitation programme.

The Moroccan international has been undergoing treatment following the injury he sustained during the clash with FUS Rabat.

Sources indicate that Ziyech will continue his recovery work in the coming days before gradually reintegrating into full training, raising hopes of a return to competitive action in the near future.

His comeback would be a significant lift for Wydad, given his importance within the squad. The playmaker has endured a difficult spell with injuries this season, having also been sidelined after the encounter with AS FAR.

As the Professional League prepares to resume fixtures next week, Carteron will be looking to capitalise on the potential return of key players, with Wydad set to face a crucial test away to the Palm Knights.

With pressure mounting and results needing improvement, Ziyech’s availability could prove vital in restoring creativity and balance to the team’s performance.
