Real Madrid winger Brahim Diaz has made the decision to represent Morocco’s national team instead of Spain’s, the Moroccan Football Federation announced on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has been named in Morocco’s squad for their upcoming matches against Angola and Mauritania this month.
International Allegiance Switch
Having previously represented Spain in one game, where he scored against Lithuania in 2021, Diaz is now set to join Morocco’s ranks. FIFA regulations permit players to switch their international allegiance if they have made fewer than three appearances for a country before turning 21 and have not played for that nation for at least three years.
Impressive Season with Real Madrid
Diaz’s inclusion in Morocco’s squad comes on the back of his strong performances for Real Madrid this season. The talented winger has showcased his abilities, contributing eight goals in 32 appearances across all competitions for the Spanish giants.
Squad Inclusion and Expectations
Walid Regragui, Morocco’s head coach, has named Diaz in his 24-man squad for the upcoming matches, highlighting the player’s importance to the team’s plans. With Diaz’s skill and versatility, Morocco will look to capitalize on his contributions to secure positive results in their upcoming fixtures.
Future Prospects
As Diaz embarks on this new chapter in his international career, all eyes will be on his performances for Morocco. With his potential to make a significant impact on the team, fans eagerly anticipate seeing Diaz in action and his potential to play a pivotal role in Morocco’s quest for success on the international stage.
