Wydad have signed the likes of Cassius Mailula and Pedrinho this summer, but they are still working on adding more quality to the squad before the new season kicks off.

Boutouil set to dump Sundowns for Mokwena's Wydad

According to a report by iDiskiTimes, Boutouil is close to making a return to Morocca as he's set to dump Sundowns for a move to Mokwena's Wydad AC.

The Sundowns defender had a good time playing under the South African tactician at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium, and could rekindle the relationship in the Moroccan league this summer.

The former SC Chabab Mohammedia star has not been part the Masandawana's pre-season training, and reportedly arrived from his holidays with injury and informed the club management of his wish to return to Morocco.

There were issues regarding his value earlier this summer, but it has been resolved with a termination of his contract close to being completed.

Report confirmed that the former Raja Casablanca defender has agreed a two-year contract with the Moroccan giants and his salary is not a problem between both parties.
