Tau speaks on reuniting with Mokwena at Wydad

According to iDiskiTimes, Tau confirmed that he didn't talk with Mokwena about joining him at Wydad in the Botola Pro League in an interview with Andile Ncube on Sports Night Amplified.

"No, I did not speak with him [Mokwena] about Wydad," the Al Ahly star said.
"We are close, but I did not speak to him about work. It's a close [relationship]. But he just got to Wydad, and I'm also at Ahly."

The former Sundowns star confirmed that he will still meet with Mokwena, as they have a good relationship, but it won't be about moving to the Moroccan league.

"We're close. We will meet somewhere and talk, but not in terms of moving to Morocco," the South African forward added.
