Wydad AC is actively negotiating with goalkeeper Mehdi Benabid to renew his contract, signaling a strategic move to retain core players ahead of the upcoming football season. Sources indicate that discussions have been positive, with both the club and the player expressing a mutual desire to continue their collaboration. Benabid has been a standout performer since his arrival, making his contract extension a priority for the club's management during the summer transfer window. This proactive approach aims to prevent the player from entering the final year of his contract and to ensure stability within the squad under new coach Paulo Sergio. Further negotiations are expected in the coming days, with the hope of reaching a final agreement for Benabid to continue defending Wydad's goal. The club recently announced the signing of three new players, including goalkeeper Rachid Ghanimi, and Hamza Janan Allah and Ayman El Hassouni, as they prepare for further acquisitions under their new leadership.
