Mamelodi Sundowns Decides to Part Ways with Thembinkosi Lorch as Moroccan Giants Wydad Athletic Club Eyes the South African Forward for a Loan Move

Thembinkosi Lorch, once a prominent figure at Mamelodi Sundowns, now faces uncertainty as the club seems ready to part ways with him.

Just a year after making his high-profile move from Orlando Pirates, Lorch’s role at Sundowns has significantly diminished.

So, what’s next for the South African international?

From Star Player to Benchwarmer

Lorch’s journey at Sundowns began with a lot of promise.

After his transfer from Orlando Pirates, the expectations were sky-high.

In the early stages, he was a regular starter under coach Rulani Mokwena.

However, since Mokwena’s departure, Lorch’s impact on the field has been minimal.

This season, he has only started two matches in all competitions, a stark contrast to the pivotal role he played previously.

Wydad Athletic Club Shows Interest

Now, Moroccan giants Wydad Athletic Club are eyeing the troubled forward.

Reports suggest that Wydad is interested in bringing Lorch to their side but under a loan arrangement.

The club has faced challenges in securing its top transfer targets, making Lorch an appealing option to strengthen their squad.

Sundowns’ Preference for International Moves

While some rumors have linked Lorch with South African rivals like Kaizer Chiefs, it seems Sundowns are determined not to bolster a domestic competitor.

The club reportedly favors a move that would see Lorch leave the PSL, which gives Wydad a clear advantage in landing him.

This preference could make all the difference in the race for Lorch’s signature.

The Clock Is Ticking

With the Moroccan transfer window closing soon, Wydad is under pressure to finalize the deal.

The next few days are critical, and the club must act fast if they want to secure Lorch before the deadline passes.

Negotiations are likely to heat up, and we could see a resolution sooner rather than later.

What’s Next for Lorch?

As this transfer saga unfolds, the big question remains: will Wydad move quickly to bring Lorch on board, or will another unexpected twist alter his future? His next move could also have implications for his national team career.

Keep an eye on this space for updates as Lorch’s fate continues to hang in the balance.
