Between Marc Wilmots and Raja Casablanca, it’s already over! Appointed coach of the Aigle Vert in early November, the Belgian technician was officially sacked this Sunday, the RCA announced in the evening on its Facebook page. 48 hours after a major Victoire on the ground of ES Sétif on Friday in the group stage of the Champions League (1-0), this decision may surprise, but nevertheless seemed inevitable.
If the former coach of Belgium can indeed boast of having won his two matches in LdC, his record in the league is however insufficient with 2 wins only for 4 draws and a defeat in 7 games and especially 8 points behind. on the leader and rival, Wydad Casablanca. Critics had been raining for several weeks on the technician who had also lost against Al Ahly at the end of December in CAF Super Cup (1-1, 6-5 tab).
After his ephemeral and failed stint on the Ivory Coast bench (March-November 2017), it is therefore a new failure on the African continent for the “Taurus of Dongelberg”. To replace it, the name of Mondher Kebaier, sacked of his post as coach of Tunisia after the elimination in the quarter-finals of CAN 2021, has circulated in recent days.
