Rhulani Mokwena hints at Wydad Casablanca joining the race for reported Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns transfer target Feisal Salum - 'He is one of the best on the continent... very special'

Tanzanian side Azam FC have said they are open to listening to offers for midfielder Feisal Salum.

This comes as Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns are reportedly chasing the Tanzania international.

Wydad Casablanca coach Rhulani Mokwena has waxed lyrical about the player in what could be a hint that the Moroccans are also interested in Salum.

“He’s a very good player, one of the best on the continent,” said Mokwena as per FARPost.

“For me, Feisal is very special, and for me I like his personality. Not only as a footballer, but also as a human being.”

The mention of Sundowns in the race for Salum's signature might discourage his other suitors.

Masandawana are known for their relentless pursuit of players and could be aggressive in using money to court the Tanzania midfielder.

It is also to be seen if Wydad will be prepared to go all out and secure the player if they officially register interest.

The 2024/25 Premier Soccer League season is slowly approaching its conclusion and it is to be seen which team will swiftly move in to tie Salum and wade off competition for the player.

While Sundowns could flex their financial muscle and Wydad could use their proximity to Europe to lure Salum, Chiefs might want to have Nasreddine Nabi influence the midfielder after the two previously worked together at Young Africans.
