Morocco Coach Regragui Eyes Squad Shake-up Ahead of Next Call-up

Walid Regragui, coach of the Atlas Lions, plans to make significant changes to his next player list, with some departures and arrivals.
Thus, it would be planned to sideline Reda Belahyane, midfielder of Lazio, in order to make way for Ayyoub Bouaddi, who is shining this season with Lille in French Ligue 1.
According to these sources, although the competition is strong in the midfield position, Regragui would have decided in favor of Bouaddi, convinced of his ability to strengthen the squad.
The coach also intends to maintain his trust in Amir Richardson, a player playing at Fiorentina, and to include in his calculations Chamseddine Talbi, who recently opted for the Moroccan national team over Belgium. Consequently, Belahyane should not appear in the next call-ups.
On another level, Regragui continues to work to convince Bouaddi to join the Moroccan national team, although the latter is engaged in a dynamic with the French U21 team, with a view to the next Euro Espoirs.
To accelerate this choice, the Moroccan technician plans to travel to France in order to personally meet Bouaddi and persuade him to choose Morocco before the French Federation locks him into its future plans.
Regragui also plans to meet Neil El Aynaoui, a player from RC Lens, as part of the preparation for the upcoming deadlines of the national team.
