Fez: Reda Hamdallah
The security authorities in Fez responded to the request of the fans and officials of the Maghreb de Fes football club to double the number of tickets for its match tonight, Friday, at the Hassan II Stadium, in which it will host Wydad Casablanca in the first round of the first national group, and increased the number of tickets from 3,500 to 5,500 tickets.
The Fassi team will play its first match against Wydad, whose fans are banned from traveling to Fez, and which settled the pending disputes, unlike MAS, which failed to qualify players in the first matches. It is expected to play today’s match with players, most of whom are from Amal, and the rest are former team players.
Although the Casablanca team enters the match with all its players after successfully qualifying them, the Fassi team will be deprived of many players that it decided to include during the transfer period due to their failure to qualify for this match due to the failure to settle its disputes with former players who left the team.
The Fassi team only succeeded in settling 14 disputes out of 35 disputes for which final rulings were issued, as it paid 360 million centimes to settle the aforementioned files, while 21 files for other players remained awaiting settlement, which will deprive it of its new players in today’s match.
The team officials are negotiating with a group of players in the hope of settling disputes with them and enabling them to receive part of the outstanding dues and waive the rest, including former Wydad goalkeeper Reda Tagnaouti and his teammates Tariq Astati, Imad Rahouli, Abdelnabi El Harari, Karim El Ouledi, Anas Azim and Ajrai.
