Wydad Athletic Club has submitted an official offer of 500 million centimes to Russian Sochi for the Moroccan international Yahya Attiat Allah, during the ongoing summer transfer window.

This move by the management of the red team comes as part of their efforts to strengthen the squad before the new season begins, especially given the technical staff's need for experienced players in defensive wing positions.

Attiat Allah had played last season on loan to Egyptian club Al Ahly, before his loan ended and he returned to his original club in Russia.

Despite the player's desire to return to the red fortress, where he previously excelled and won several titles, Sochi is not showing flexibility in negotiations, insisting on a fee of 10 million Moroccan dirhams (1 billion centimes) in exchange for his services, which is double the value of the offer made by Wydad.

This significant financial gap is the main obstacle to completing the deal, putting Wydad's management in a position to either raise the offer or seek a compromise that would satisfy the Russian club, especially given the player's strong desire to return to the national league.

It is expected that negotiations will see decisive developments in the coming days, should Wydad's management decide to adjust the offer or involve intermediaries to bridge the differences.
