Revealed: How Real star chose Morocco over Spain
Morocco head coach Walid Regragui has revealed how a certain Real Madrid star chose to represent the Atlas Lions over Spain.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-finalists are set to take on Angola and Mauritania during this month, with Brahim Diaz tipped to partake in the action after being selected for the squad. Speaking at a press conference ahead of their game against the Black Gazelles, the Moroccan coach said that he first met the 24-year-old before his big move to the Santiago Bernabeu, and that getting him into the national team's setup has long been in the works.
"I met him for the first time when he was in Milan, then came his important move to Real Madrid, and after that came the African Cup of Nations."
