Mamelodi Sundowns are set to sell Thembinkosi Lorch to Wydad Casablanca following his successful loan spell at the club.
The 31-year-old winger made a total of 17 appearances for Wydad across all competitions since joining the club on loan from Downs. He was one of the club’s best players at the FIFA Club World Cup, which is ongoing.
According to reports, Sundowns are looking to sell Lorch after just 18 months at the club.
“Wydad Athletic Club are now reported to have finally reached an agreement to sign Thembinkosi Lorch on a permanent deal,” a KickOff report citing Al-Mountakhab read.
“Moroccan newspaper Al-Mountakhab now claims that Wydad have reached an agreement with Sundowns over the permanent transfer of Lorch. According to the Arabic outlet, His agent is said to have been in Morocco to finalise the deal.”
Should Sundowns sell Lorch?
Nyoso has never really settled at Downs since his high-profile move from Orlando Pirates in 2024. With Rulani Mokwena having left The Brazilians in July last year, Lorch’s place in the team was always going to be threatened, given the galaxy of stars at the club.
From the looks of things, Sundowns will be happy to sell Lorch in the coming weeks. So far, Masandawana have already parted ways with five players but are yet to make any signings.
Should Sundowns put a price of Lorch?
