2026 World Cup: Othmane Maama risks missing the trip after Ouahbi's passage in Europe

National coach Mohammed Ouahbi has begun a two-week European tour. This trip aims to supervise the Moroccan internationals before finalizing the definitive list for the 2026 World Cup organized in North America.

The priority of this trip is the observation of players playing in England, particularly Imrân Louza. The Watford midfielder is considered a future pillar of the Moroccan midfield for the world competition. The coach will also meet with Noussair Mazraoui, Issa Diop and Chadi Riad to finalize his choices among the contingent playing in the British championships.

On the other hand, Othmane Maama’s participation remains uncertain due to his lack of rhythm and preparation. Mohammed Ouahbi favors direct communication to ensure the stability of the squad and ensure the physical condition of his troops. This tour is the final step before the announcement of the final list for the North American tournament.
