Wydad AC signs Thembinkosi Lorch from Mamelodi Sundowns on loan deal

Wydad AC have completed offloaded South African’s winger, Thembinkosi Lorch, from Mamelodi Sundowns on loan swap.

The 31-year-old has joined Botola Pro side on a six-month loan deal with an option to buy, becoming Wydad’s fourth signing of the January window.

Wydad are currently looking for best players to complete Moroccan league and restore their reign, as well preparation for upcoming Club World Cup in United States.

The announcement was made in a stylized video, reminiscent of Egyptian side Al Ahly’s unveiling of Anthony Modeste last summer.

Lorch, 31, was unveiled by Wydad on Sunday where he has reunited with coach Rulani Mokwena as he looks to revive his career a year after joining Masandawana from Orlando Pirates.

Mokwena was reportedly instrumental in luring the 31-year-old midfielder away from Orlando Pirates to Sundowns last year, and could now help revive the midfielder’s career.

The midfielder has made only seven appearances across all competitions this season.
