Morocco set for squad overhaul after AFCON defeat

Morocco are preparing for major changes to the national team after their early exit at the Africa Cup of Nations. The disappointment of the tournament has led to a rethink about the squad, with a clear expectation that the selection will look very different in the period ahead.

The AFCON ended in frustration for Morocco after they were knocked out despite arriving as one of the favourites. The result has increased pressure around the team and sparked discussions about who should remain part of the project going forward.

What has now been revealed is that a “big clean-up” is on the agenda within the Morocco camp. Several players are expected to lose their place, as the federation and technical staff look to refresh the group and set a new course after the defeat.

The focus is now on rebuilding and moving on quickly, with upcoming international windows seen as the first moment to show a new direction. Morocco want to restore confidence and results, and the AFCON setback appears to be the trigger for a squad overhaul.
