The national coach, Walid Regragui, spoke for the first time about the case of Brahim Diaz , who chose to play for Morocco after being courted by Spain.

The adventure ends for the attacking midfielder of Genk, Ilyès Bennane, who will have to find a new club. At the origin of this departure, a difference of opinion between the Belgian club and the family of the young Liégeois who has recently joined the Atlas Lions.

Brahim Díaz, the Spanish-Moroccan striker of Real Madrid, has recently abandoned Spain and joined the den of the Atlas Lions, on the field. Will his arrival cast a shadow over his teammate Hakim Ziyech, the star of the Moroccan team playing in the Turkish championship?

Galatasaray star Hakim Ziyech celebrated his birthday this week at the Mohammed VI complex and his Moroccan national team teammates had a touching gesture for the player.

Welcomed as a hero in Morocco whose colors he will now defend, Brahim Díaz took the time to thank King Mohammed VI for his "support". This gesture has annoyed part of the Spanish press.

After several months of hesitation, Brahim Dìaz finally chose Morocco as his sporting nationality to the detriment of his country of birth and his father, Spain. A choice supported by the Spanish actress, Luz Mende, the Atlas Lion’s partner.

Brahim Diaz will play a key role in the Moroccan team. The Real Madrid striker will wear the number 10, his favorite number.

The Moroccan striker of the Mexican club Pachuca, Oussama Idrissi , expressed his disappointment after not being called up by Walid Regragui for the friendly matches against Angola and Mauritania, scheduled for March 22 and 26 at the Grand Stadium of Agadir.

A video that has gone viral on social media in recent days shows Brahim Diaz performing a traditional Moroccan dance with his father during a family celebration in Morocco.

The case of Brahim Diaz, who chose Morocco as his sporting nationality over Spain, could set an example. Several players of Moroccan origin could decide to join the Atlas Lions.

While he had been hoping for years for a call-up to the Spanish national team, Brahim Diaz would not have appreciated the call-up in October of Bryan Zaragoza by Luis de la Fuente. According to a Spanish media, this decision by the Roja coach would have pushed the Real Madrid striker to choose to play for Morocco.

The absence of Amine Harit, midfielder of Olympique de Marseille (OM), from the list of players selected by Walid Regragui, coach of the Atlas Lions, to participate in the friendly matches against Angola and Mauritania, scheduled for March 22 and March 26 respectively at the Grand Stade d’Agadir, raises questions.
