Enyimba have arrived Casablanca ahead of the African Football League quarter-final second leg clash against Morocco’s Wydad Athletic Club.
The Nigerian champions were initially expected to travel to the North African country on Monday, but couldn’t make the trip after they were denied a landing permit by Moroccan authorities.
The Aba giants departed the Murtala Muhammed International, Airport on Tuesday aboard a chartered aircraft and arrived Casablanca in the early hours of Wednesday.
The delay in Enyimba’s departure to Morocco has also forced the Confederation of African Football (CAF)
to postpone their clash against the Red Castle.
