Wydad Chief 'Open' To Accepting Rulani Requests If...

Wydad Athletic Club's president is reportedly open to accepting Rulani Mokwena's latest request to try to get back to winning ways, but only on one condition.

It has not been smooth sailing for the South African tactician in Casablanca.

This past weekend, his Wydad side suffered their third league defeat of the campaign as they lost 1-0 to 10-man RS Berkane, with the Johannesburg native even needing to be shielded by security after the match to avoid projectiles thrown by supporters.

While club president Hicham Ait Menna has backed Mokwena after giving him a three-year deal to coach the Red Castle, it seems his patience is waning and if results do not improve immediately, then the former Mamelodi Sundowns boss could be on his way out.

In an attempt to improve results, the 37-year-old has requested that the club make three high-level signings during the next transfer window.

According to Kooora, Mokwena has become disillusioned with seven of the 21 acquisitions the club brought in during the off-season and wants them gone, and is keen to replace them with three quality signings.

The ex-Orlando Pirates coach is also said to now be familiar with the Botola Pro Inwi and knows the positions he needs to fill in order to turn the team's fortunes around.

A source told the aforementioned publication that while Ait Menna is surprised at Mokwena's insistence on more new players after he green-lit most of the previous signings, the Moroccan executive is open to this request but will only do so if the South African can turn their results around and ensure that he is still in the Red Castle dugout by the time the January transfer window opens.
