The training session of Wydad Athletic Club on Thursday witnessed the return of former Moroccan international Hakim Ziyech to the team's atmosphere, after a short two-day trip to the Netherlands.

Ziyech participated in the training sessions normally with the group, amidst a positive atmosphere and high spirits, as part of the red team's preparations for the upcoming challenge.

Wydad continues its preparations to face Tanzania's Azam, scheduled for next Sunday, in a match described as decisive in the team's continental competition journey.

Ziyech had obtained special permission from the club's management to travel to the Netherlands after the Nairobi match, as he did not return with the team from Kenya. He later rejoined training in preparation for the upcoming phase.
