Heba Press – Casablanca
Sonargis, the company in charge of the rehabilitation of the Mohammed V complex, announced the reduction in the capacity of the stadium from 46,000 seats to 43,000 seats, a decision which raised many questions, especially since the Town Hall of Casablanca aspired to increase capacity to keep up with the strong demand from supporters, particularly during Raja and Wydad or national team matches.
The city council held a meeting with Sonargis officials to discuss the reasons for this decision, contrary to expectations, at a time when it was expected to improve the stadium’s ability to meet the needs of supporters.
The decision has sparked concerns about its impact on crowd capacity at major matches, which could affect the enthusiastic atmosphere that characterizes the stadium.
The exact details of this decision remain unclear, which has opened the way to much speculation about the reasons for the capacity reduction.
