Morocco coach Walid Regragui is carefully monitoring Ibrahim Diaz after the midfielder picked up an injury ahead of the friendly against Nigeria.
Diaz has been a key name in Regragui’s plans in recent camps, but his condition has become a concern as Morocco prepare for the upcoming test. The coaching staff is keeping a close eye on his recovery during the final training sessions before facing Nigeria.
Regragui is expected to avoid any unnecessary risk, with the player’s readiness set to be decided only after the medical team completes its evaluations. The priority, according to the staff’s approach, is to protect Diaz from any setback while keeping options open for the match.
The situation leaves Regragui considering alternatives in case Diaz is not cleared to take part, as Morocco look to maintain balance and intensity against a strong Nigerian side.
Morocco’s camp has focused on fine details and fitness management, with Diaz’s injury now one of the main points on the agenda before the Nigeria clash.
