Press reports close to Renaissance Sportive de Berkane revealed that veteran Issoufou Dayo has decided to leave the Moroccan club at the end of the current season.

Emergency meeting with management

Press reports indicate that the 18-year-old player has requested an emergency meeting with the club's management, expressing his desire to explore new horizons for his professional career outside of Morocco. The player had previously renewed his contract with the Moroccan club for two additional years, citing his desire to gain additional experience in the CAF Champions League, according to press reports.

After over a decade of unwavering commitment, Issoufou Dayo has parted ways with RS Berkane, leaving behind an indelible legacy. As a defensive stalwart and charismatic leader, he played a pivotal role in securing eight major trophies for the club: three Throne Cups, three CAF Confederation Cups, one CAF Super Cup, and one Botola Pro title.

Dayo’s dedication, selflessness, and profound loyalty to the Orange jersey transformed him into a club icon. Recognizing his immense contributions, the management honored his request to depart without hesitation.

His exit marks the closing chapter of RS Berkane’s golden era. Now, the club faces the daunting task of filling both the symbolic and strategic void he leaves behind as they prepare for their upcoming continental campaign.
