Club career

Raja Casablanca Mabidé signed a three-year contract with Raja Casablanca on 11 July 2012 for 2.5million dirham. During the 2013 FIFA Club World Cup Semi-finals match against Atlético Mineiro, he scored the third goal in a 3–1 victory that saw Raja progress to the Final against Bayern Munich.

Before the semifinal of 2013 FIFA Club World Cup, when Raja would face Brazilian side Atlético Mineiro, Mabidé spoke about Ronaldinho and caused a huge controversy. According to him: "I already faced Messi, how can I fear Ronaldinho? He is no more the same Ronaldinho from Barcelona times." Ironically, he scored, in the victory of 3–1 over Brazilians, the last goal of the game, what permitted Raja in the final. After the game, reducing the controversy, Mabidé spoke these words: "He (Ronaldinho) is no more the same player from Barcelona times. But he is still a great player."
