Ismail Khafi Makes a Comeback: Raja Casablanca Gets a Boost on Campus
Ismail Khafi returns to training as Raja Casablanca eye a climb in the league.

Update: Ismail Khafi Returns to Training

Raja Casablanca, the renowned Moroccan club from Casablanca, received a significant morale boost today as Ismail Khafi returned to full on-field training with the squad.

Khafi had missed sessions since an injury sustained in the friendly with Saudi club Al Wehda, on December 8.

He recovered and took part in yesterday's practice, according to Raja's official Facebook page.

Raja has played seven league matches this season and sits fourth with 15 points.

Wydad Casablanca leads the table with 20 points from eight games.

Punchline: If comebacks were a sport, Khafi just filed for the MVP—Most Valuable Player of Comebacks.

Punchline: Raja Casablanca's slogan tonight: back, brace, and blast—arm, leg, and pun resistance is futile.
