Raja Casablanca presented an exclusive jersey for its participation in the CAF Champions League, displaying a geographical map of the Moroccan Kingdom related to a political dispute between Morocco and Algeria.


This new jersey will be inaugurated this evening during the long-awaited confrontation against AS FAR in Rabat, as part of the first day of the group stage. This outfit was unveiled in a promotional video involving stars of the team such as Senegalese striker Pape Sakho and Equatoguinean international Frédéric Bikoro.


Furthermore, Algerian midfielder Yousri Bouzok whose status is uncertain for the match finally appeared in the group called by coach Ricardo Sá Pinto, thus denying the rumors surrounding a possible boycott of the match. It should be remembered that a similar situation marked last season in the Confederation Cup, when USM Alger refused to face Berkane Renaissance in the semi-final, leading to a defeat on the green carpet and financial sanctions from CAF.
