Wydad head coach Rulani Mokwena was left disappointed after his charges played to a 1-1 draw with Olympic Safi on Wednesday.
The Red Castle led the Safi until the last three to four minutes of the game when they let them score the equaliser.
The result means Wydad have now drawn their last six league matches, and they find themselves third in the Botola Pro 1.
With three ganes to go, Wydad need to win all of them and hope AS FAR Rabat slip up in order for them to finish second.
And should that happen, they would then return to CAF Champions League football next season.
Now, Mokwena, who is leaving Wydad, said it’s up to the president to decide his fate but his stance on vacating his position hasn’t changed.
He further said Wydad are the only Moroccan team he will ever coach, declaring his love for the club.
However, he feels perhaps Wydad deserve a better coach than him at this point in time.
RULANI FEELS WYDAD DESERVE A BETTER COACH THAN HIM
“It’s up to the president, I already said at the end of the season, I will leave. So, that’s the situation,” he told the media.
“I love Wydad, I will only coach Wydad in Morocco, if I leave, I leave as a Wydad. When you say ‘Dima Wydad’, you say ‘Dima Wydad’ forever, and just to thank the president, he’s been amazing.
“I think Wydad has the best president in Morocco, maybe in Africa. The players have given me everything of the best, the staff has been good.
“Wydad is a big club you know, they deserve to win, and maybe they deserve a better coach than me,” Mokwena concluded.
