Mokwena has been busy trying to finalise his technical team and is expected to bring in new players, with Bongani Zungu linked with the club. According to reports, Zungu is close to completing a move to the Moroccan giants, but has not completed a medical yet.
Wydad are expected to officially announce the technical team soon. It will be a big season for Mokwena and his technical, after Wydad finished sixth in the league last season.
