On Tuesday, October 20, Raja informed CAF of the quarantine of its team by the Moroccan health authorities, following the detection of eight (8) players declared positive for COVID-19 tests, CAF said in a press release.

"In addition, we received decisions of the Moroccan authorities cancelling the special authorization to travel outside Moroccan territory granted to RAJA and thus imposing the club a self-isolation for one week, until October 27, 2020, date of a new PCR test," the source added.

As a result, the team will not be able to travel to Egypt for their second leg of the 2019/20 T0TAL CAF Champions League Semi-Finals against Zamalek, scheduled for 24 October 2020. 
Following a consultation meeting held immediately between the CAF experts, the authorities of Raja and the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), the President of Raja reaffirmed the willingness of the Club to participate in this competition.

Faced with this situation, in order to protect the integrity of the competition and promote a spirit of solidarity, the Organizing Committee for Inter-Club Competitions and Management of Club Licensing System has agreed to postpone the return match of the semi-final of the Champions League between Zamalek SC and Raja on November 1st, 2020. At the same time, the match Al Ahly SC - WAC is maintained and the Final of the 2019/20 Total CAF Champions League remains scheduled for November 06th, 2020, it added.
