Hamza Hannouri has returned to full fitness just in time for Wydad Sporting Club’s biggest challenge of the season, facing Manchester City in the opening match of the Club World Cup group stage on Wednesday.
The striker, who picked up mouth and knee injuries in a recent friendly against FC Porto, has rejoined group training and is set to feature among the attacking options. His comeback boosts Wydad’s chances as they aim to make a strong start to their campaign.
Sources confirmed to Hesport that Hamza Hannouri is fully cleared and ready to contribute in the high-stakes clash.
Meanwhile, Ayoub Boucheta remains doubtful after picking up a knock during training. The team’s medical and coaching staff are waiting on final test results before deciding his availability.
As a precaution, Wydad may opt to rest Ayoub Boucheta for this match to ensure a full recovery before upcoming games against Juventus on June 22 and Al Ain on June 26.
All eyes are now on Hannouri, who is eager to lead Wydad’s charge on the global stage.
