The ongoing feud between Hakim Ziyech and the management of Wydad Casablanca has reached a critical juncture, raising serious questions about the future of the player with the club. Ziyech, who has been a pivotal figure for Wydad, publicly criticized the club's president, accusing him of dishonesty regarding his recent exclusion from the squad during a training camp in Agadir. This situation unfolded after Ziyech responded to an Instagram post from Wydad's official account that claimed he had questioned the technical director, Paulo Sergio, about his omission from the team. The post suggested that the decision was purely administrative, a statement Ziyech vehemently disputed.
In a pointed remark, Ziyech instructed fans to inquire with the president about the reasons behind his exclusion from a friendly match against Nahdat Zemamra, hinting that the president would likely fabricate an excuse, as he has done in the past. This exchange has ignited speculation among fans and observers about Ziyech's standing within the club and the potential implications for his career moving forward.
Compounding the issue, Wydad's management, led by Brahim El Asri, has been attempting to negotiate a reduction in Ziyech's salary, which he has consistently refused. The player, who joined Wydad in October 2025 under the previous president Hicham Ait Menna, has remained firm in his stance against any financial cuts, further straining his relationship with the club's current administration. As the situation evolves, both Ziyech's future with Wydad and the overall dynamics within the team remain uncertain.
