Moroccan international center-back Jawad El Yamiq joined Serie A outfit Genoa after the Italian club finalized a deal with Raja Casablanca.

According to Gianluca Dimarizo, Jawad El Yamiq signed a four-year contract for 800,000 Euros coming from Moroccan giants Raja Casablanca.

El Yamiq started to grab attention after he joined Raja in August 2016 coming from Olympique Khouribga, where he won with the team the Moroccan Cup in the same season. This season he played 11 matches with Raja and managed to score two goals.

Genoa are currently struggling in the 15th position in the league with 21 points, only four points away from the relegation zone.
