Wydad Athletic Club and Morocco international Hakim Ziyech have agreed to terminate his contract by mutual consent, ending the winger’s brief spell with the Casablanca club.

Wydad announced the departure Sunday in a Facebook statement but gave no reason for the decision or details of the termination agreement.

“Sometimes, some stories are shorter than we hoped, but they leave an indelible mark,” the club said, thanking Ziyech for his time with the team and wishing him success on and off the field.

Ziyech’s next destination remains uncertain, although Brazil’s Botafogo has reportedly shown interest in signing the former Chelsea and Ajax player during the current transfer window.

Former Wydad president Hicham Ait Menna, who oversaw Ziyech’s signing, also posted a farewell message on Instagram.

“You arrived as a star and you leave as a star,” Ait Menna wrote, praising the player’s professionalism and commitment.
