Wydad Casasblanca have appointed Juan Carlos Garrido as their new head coach.
Garrido takes over from Sebastien Desabre and is back in Morocco, having previously coached Wydad’s city rivals Raja Casablanca where he spent close to two seasons.
The Spaniard inherits a Wydad side that is on top of the Moroccan Botola Pro League table and his first match in charge of the club would be Saturday’s Caf Champions League quarter-final clash against Etoile du Sahel at home.
Interestingly before joining Wydad, Etoile were Garrido’s last club and he spent nearly three months at the Tunisian giants who sacked him earlier this month.
