Iran Eyes Hervé Renard as National Soccer Team Coach Amid Speculation
Repeatedly denied in the past, new rumors suggest the imminent arrival of Morocco’s coach, Hervé Renard, in Iran.

Repeatedly denied in the past, new rumors suggest the imminent arrival of Morocco’s coach, Hervé Renard, in Iran.

For the friendly match between the Atlas Lions and the Argentine Albiceleste, there will be tickets for all budgets. From 30 to 2000 dirhams.

Life is not a long quiet river within the national team, if we are to believe the latest rumors that report friction between the national coach and a player.

The time when he was touted as a future star of world football is over. Moroccan player Hachim Mastour has just terminated his contract with the modest Greek club PAS Lamia, or perhaps it’s the other way around.

The final list of Moroccan players who will face the teams of Malawi and Argentina in the coming days is now known. It has just been unveiled by national coach Hervé Renard.

He will be present in Morocco. Lionel Messi will attend the friendly match between Argentina and Morocco scheduled for March 26 at the Tangier Stadium, putting an end to several weeks of doubt and wild rumors.

While the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) paid a high price for the presence of Lionel Messi during the friendly match between Morocco and the Argentine team, the latter has decided to snub the kingdom.

This is the match of all requirements and conditions. To bring Argentina to Morocco, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) had to comply with draconian conditions imposed by its Argentine counterpart.

Lionel Messi will not be a starter in the friendly match Morocco-Argentina, according to certain media. He will be a substitute. And he could therefore even not play at all, or very little.

While the FRMF had demanded the presence of all the stars for the friendly match (for which the federation will pay 1.5 million euros) against the Argentine Albiceleste, we learn that many "stars" will be absent. Including Mauro Icardi.

It’s France rather than Morocco. The Franco-Moroccan player Kevin Malcuit has, once again, shown his desire to play for the French national team, putting an end to the ambitions of Moroccan football officials to see him play with the Atlas Lions.

Pressed by the Dutch media to give the reasons for this turnaround in choosing Morocco, when his choice was almost naturally directed towards the Netherlands, the now Moroccan international Oussama Idrissi explained it at length in an interview.
