FIFA Approves Moroccan Nationality for Belgian-Born Youssef Hamdaoui

FIFA has just validated the new sports nationality of the young Belgian of Moroccan origin Youssef Hamdaoui. This is at least what can be read on the website of the international football body.
Born in the city of Antwerp, in the Flemish region of Belgium, Youssef Hamdaoui has therefore chosen to play for the Moroccan national football team after playing for many years with the youth selections of Belgium. In total, the new Lion has played 13 matches with the Belgian team: 5 with the U15s, 3 with the U16s and 5 with the U17s, with whom he scored one goal.
At 17 years old today, he should be called up very quickly with the Moroccan team, which is currently playing the Africa Cup of Nations, organized in Morocco.
The current player of Royal Antwerp has a value of 150,000 euros according to data reported by Transfermarkt.
