Reports in Morocco on Sunday addressed claims that Sofyan Amrabat has been dropped from the Morocco squad to face Tanzania, after allegations of “disobedience” towards head coach Walid Regragui.
Amrabat’s name was at the centre of talk suggesting he was excluded from the upcoming match as a disciplinary decision, with some accounts linking it to an internal dispute with the national team staff.
However, information revealed by the national team camp indicates there has been no act of rebellion from the midfielder, and that the story of a punishment-based exclusion is not accurate.
The same information confirms that Amrabat’s situation is linked to technical and physical considerations, not to any disciplinary action, and that the player remains committed within the group.
Morocco are set to continue their programme against Tanzania, as Regragui prepares his team with the available options, while the staff remain focused on match readiness and avoiding unnecessary distractions around the squad.
