Coach Mohamed Amin Ben Hachem, the technical director of Wydad Athletic Club, has chosen to implement an individual training program for the new South African arrival Thimbenkosi Lorch, in a move aimed at preparing him physically and tactically before the start of the 2025-2026 sports season.

Lorch did not participate in the recent friendly match against Nahdet Berkane, which took place last Saturday at the 'Wellness' complex, raising questions among the red fans about the reason for his absence.

However, reports from the team clarified that the player is following a precise work plan under the supervision of the medical and technical staff, focusing on enhancing his physical readiness and gradually increasing his fitness level, while integrating him step by step into the team's tactical sessions, to avoid any injuries or fatigue that could affect his start.

Ben Hachem relies on Lorch to be one of the key pillars in Wydad's lineup this season, thanks to his experience and continental background that qualified him to shine in the African Champions League.

The player is expected to make his appearance in the upcoming friendly matches, ensuring he is fully prepared before the start of the professional league scheduled for September 12.
