Royal Moroccan Football Federation requests postponement or relocation of WAC/Kaizer Chiefs match

The Moroccan Royal Football Federation (FRMF) on Wednesday requested the African Football Confederation (CAF) to postpone the CAF Champions League match scheduled on February 13 in Casablanca between Wydad and South African Kaizer Chiefs, or, failing that, to relocate it in another country.

In a statement published on its official website, the FRMF underlines it has sent a letter to the CAF Interclub Competitions Organizing Committee informing it of the decision of the Moroccan authorities not to authorize the WAC / Kaizer Chiefs match «for health reasons, following the recent evolution of the Covid-19 pandemic».

To this end, the federal body called on CAF to «postpone the match or, failing that, to relocate it in another country».
