Zaki added that the new players who will be bought will be approved by him, because buying new footballers is a matter on which both the coach and the club must agree.
At the ceremony, club president Abarchane affirmed his confidence in the new coach. “Lots of people have been criticizing Zaki, but we in IR Tangier will give him the carte blanche because he is such a good person.”
