Morocco arrives as the great African threat in Group C after reaching the semi-finals in Qatar 2022, but with a change of coach: Mohamed Ouahbi replaces Walid Regragui in March
Achraf Hakimi (PSG) is the captain and star of the national team, considered one of the best full-backs on the planet after an exceptional season, with the presence of other La Liga players like Brahim Díaz (Real Madrid) and Sofyan Amrabat (Betis)
Morocco carries unfinished business from the Africa Cup of Nations where it lost in the final against Senegal on penalties, which generates extra motivation for the 2026 World Cup

Morocco is the big African threat in Group C and arrives with pedigree: they were semifinalists at Qatar 2022. But with a plot twist: Walid Regragui departed in March and the dugout is inherited by Mohamed Ouahbi, the coach who won the Under-20 World Cup with the young Atlas Lions.

🌟 Achraf Hakimi (PSG) is the captain, the star, and one of the best fullbacks on the planet after a dream season under Luis Enrique.

🇪🇸 LaLiga flavour for Spanish fans: Brahim Díaz (Real Madrid), Abde Ezzalzouli and Sofyan Amrabat (Betis) and Azzedine Ounahi (Girona).

🔥 The drama: at the last African Cup of Nations, Morocco lost the final on penalties to Senegal… and then got handed the title on a plate after Senegalese protests. Unfinished business they're bringing to the World Cup.

🆕 New manager at the helm: Mohamed Ouahbi, Under-20 World Cup champion, takes over following Regragui's surprise exit in March. A rookie project but hungry for it.
