Rabat – Raja Casablanca President Mohammed Boudrika denied news reports that his team had reached an agreement with Tunisian coach, Faouzi Benzarti, to lead the Casablanca-based team next season.
Boudrika told the team’s official website that news suggesting Faouzi Benzarti will make a return to the Green Castle by the end of the season is ‘groundless’.
He added that disseminating such news at this particular moment aims at disturbing the team, which is gearing up for an important game against city rivals Wydad Athletic Club on Saturday.
On April 7th, numerous local media outlets reported that Faouzi Benzarti will replace Raja Casablanca’s current coach Jose Romao by the end of the season.
Benzarti took charge of Raja Casablanca in December 2013. He led the team to the final of the FIFA Club World Cup during the same year.
