Ayoub Bouaddi: Deschamps’ personal phone call that threatens Morocco’s plans
Morocco sees the French threat becoming more specific for Ayoub Bouaddi. Didier Deschamps has personally contacted the young prodigy to lock him in with the Blues, forcing the Moroccan Federation to play its last card: a call-up for the Africa Cup of Nations.
The battle for Ayoub Bouaddi’s sporting nationality is taking a direct turn. Didier Deschamps is no longer going through intermediaries: the French coach has spoken directly with the player in recent days.
According to journalist Santi Aouna, the message conveyed is unambiguous: the technical staff is counting on him for the future of the French national team. This offensive precedes a likely call-up for the next gatherings, a maneuver intended to seal his future under the tricolor jersey.
The Federation is closely following the case, aware of the urgency. Observers identify the next Africa Cup of Nations as the decisive argument: a guaranteed place in the Atlas Lions roster could tip the decision of the dual national before it’s too late.
The midfielder’s performances are driving up his stock, attracting the attention of Real Madrid, who have put him on their radar. The final decision now rests with Ayoub Bouaddi and his family.
