Real Madrid's Brahim Diaz Sparks Controversy with Ramadan Post Amid Morocco Switch

In a social media post, Brahim Diaz wished a good start to the Ramadan fast to Muslims. This publication by the Real Madrid star who is about to become a Moroccan international has sparked a wave of comments.

Brahim Diaz’s message on X came on Monday, just after the announcement of the Real Madrid midfielder’s decision to wear the Moroccan jersey, reports El Español, analyzing that Diaz has probably wanted to express his closeness to Morocco.

But the publication has sparked an avalanche of reactions. Some Internet users have posted a photograph showing Diaz and Theo Hernández, teammates at Milan, eating a ham pizza. The image has gone viral on the social network.

Others have brought back videos of Brahim Díaz in which we see him touching the pitch and making the sign of the cross before taking the field, as a starter or substitute.

After months of reluctance, Brahim Diaz has finally agreed to join the Atlas Lions. The Real Madrid star is expected to participate, barring surprise, in the upcoming friendly matches against Angola and Mauritania, scheduled for March 22 and 26 at the Grand Stade d’Agadir. He should wear the number 10.
