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.
A few days before the kick-off of the friendly matches against Angola and Mauritania, Walid Regragui, coach of the Moroccan national team, does not know where to position, Brahim Díaz , the Spanish-Moroccan striker of Real Madrid, who recently abandoned Spain and joined the den of the Atlas Lions, on the field.
Now a member of the Moroccan national team, Brahim Diaz , born in Malaga, Spain, spoke about his command of the Arabic language.
Luis de la Fuente, national coach of Spain, wanted to clarify the situation of Brahim Díaz, who has decided to play for Morocco.
Brahim Diaz , the Spanish-Moroccan striker of Real Madrid, explains his choice to opt for Morocco instead of his country of birth and his father, Spain. He will participate in the next friendly matches of the Atlas Lions against Angola and Mauritania.
One of the reasons that led Brahim Diaz to choose to play for Morocco is undoubtedly the possibility of participating in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. To realize this dream, the Real Madrid striker should obtain the prior agreement of his club.
The coach of the Moroccan national team, Walid Regragui , unveiled on Wednesday the list of players called up for the next friendly matches against Angola and Mauritania. As expected, several players who participated in the Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire have been excluded.
Luis de la Fuente will unveil his list for the next commitments of the Spanish national team, and the name of Brahim Díaz will probably be absent. The young Real Madrid striker has indeed decided to turn his back on La Roja to wear the colors of Morocco, his country of origin. A personal choice that is only the tip of the iceberg, revealing an open "war" between the two countries to attract dual national players.
Brahim Díaz will be a Moroccan international in the coming days. The Real Madrid midfielder has decided to play for the Moroccan team, after playing in the Spanish youth categories. A choice that complies with FIFA requirements.
In a social media post, Brahim Diaz wished a good start to the Ramadan fast to Muslims. This publication by the Real Madrid star who is about to become a Moroccan international has sparked a wave of comments.
As he is about to choose Morocco as his sporting nationality, the Hispano-Moroccan attacking midfielder of Real Madrid Brahim Diaz confides to the Atlas Lion Achraf Hakimi that he was tired of the Spanish pressure.
The coach of the Spanish national team, Luis de la Fuente, reacted on Monday to the alleged decision of Brahim Díaz to play for the Moroccan national team, stating that he "respects" the Real Madrid star’s choice.
