Youssef Jabrane responds to Hicham Ait Mana: “This father’s hand cannot be twisted.”
The debate continues within Wydad Athletic Club between club president Hicham Ait Mana and former team captain Youssef Jabrane, after the latter took to his Instagram account to respond to comments made by the club president.
Ait Mana had previously stated that Jabrane’s delay in renewing his contract with Wydad was due to his preoccupation with his barber, implying that the player had not shown enough seriousness in negotiations with the club.
However, Jabrane quickly responded, stating: “This father’s hand cannot be twisted, and you know him well…” He clarified that the delay in signing was not as the president stated but resulted from disagreements on some details between the two sides.
The statements from both parties have sparked widespread reactions among Wydad fans, with opinions divided between those who believe the management should have dealt more flexibly with the former team captain and those who consider that the club’s commitments and interests take precedence over all else.
The matter remains open to further developments, awaiting whether these statements will escalate the conflict between the two parties or mark the beginning of a new chapter between Jabrane and the Red Club.
