Moroccan Football Official Exposes Widespread Pedophilia in Youth Academies

According to the president of the northern football league, and member of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), Abdellatif El Afia, football schools are increasingly infested with pedophiles. This widespread practice in the Moroccan football environment, especially within the club football schools, is denounced by this FRMF official, reports the daily Assabah.

The influential FRMF official said that innocent children are the victims of rapes, sometimes daily, by certain sexual deviants and pedophiles. Without giving precise figures on the victims, the president said he has "shocking" figures on this drama unfolding in these training centers.

The pedophiles’ strategy is to buy phones and various gifts for the young people. In addition to the phones, professional contracts or places in the various national youth teams are promised to these potential victims, said El Afia. The official also notes that some parents, "unfortunately, are unaware of these facts or do not wish to file a complaint".
