Barcelona Winger Ezzalzouli Chooses Spain Over Morocco for International Career
The Moroccan player Abdessamad Ezzalzouli, who has just obtained Spanish nationality, has decided to turn his back on the Moroccan team to play with Spain.
According to the local press, the Barcelona player has finally decided to give up the Atlas Lions in order to be able to play with the Spanish national team and at the same time put an end to any speculation about his arrival or not in Morocco in preparation for the Africa Cup of Nations (CAN 2022 in Cameroon).
The strategy employed by the Spaniards has finally paid off. After FC Barcelona put pressure on the player, threatening not to line him up in the first team, the federation stepped in by promising him a place in the Roja. In addition, the authorities were called in to quickly provide papers to the native of Beni Mellal, who obtained his Spanish passport this week.
In any case, Abdessamad seems already convinced since on social networks, he has just erased any mention in relation to the Moroccan team. Good luck Abdessamad!
