Regragui To Meet Up With Brahim Diaz To Represent Morocco

In a swift move to secure the talents of Real Madrids Brahim Diaz, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) is intensifying efforts amidst Spanish media pressure. Sources within the FRMF have reportedly confirmed an upcoming meeting between national team coach Walid Regragui and Brahim Diaz in the coming days. This follows three prior discussions since last year, indicating a careful and discreet handling of Diazs file despite Spanish media pushing for him to represent La Roja. Regragui, in a previous decision, did not call up Diaz for the Africa Cup of Nations in 2023, aligning with a pre-established agreement. This decision aimed at securing Diazs presence in the African qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Notably, Regragui remains assured of Diazs commitment, anticipating a final decision before the upcoming training camp in March. Its worth noting that Morocco awaits Diazs final approval to initiate the process of changing his sports nationality with FIFA. This step is crucial for his eligibility in the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. However, other reports signal a blow to Moroccos bid as Diaz nears Spanish call-up for March friendlies against Colombia and Brazil. As per Spanish reports, De la Fuente values Diazs impressive performances at Real Madrid this season and intends to close the door on his potential representation of Morocco. The players remarkable form and consistent performances make him a strong contender for the European Championship in Germany. The situation becomes even more complex as De la Fuente, in earlier statements, questioned Diazs international intentions. De la Fuente emphasized the importance of a voluntary commitment without resorting to coercion. This stance implies that Diazs decision should be genuine, not influenced by external pressures. Meanwhile, according to Moroccan reports, Walid Regragui will travel to Spain for a pivotal meeting with Diaz. This encounter marks the final and decisive attempt to secure Diazs commitment to the Moroccan national team. In the event of Diazs refusal, negotiations will cease, and the case will be definitively closed. After meeting Diaz, Regragui intends to tour Europe, convincing players of Moroccan descent to join the Atlas Lions.
