Claude Le Roy believes Morocco have everything it takes to win major trophies, but he insists one clear weakness is still holding the national team back.
Speaking about the Atlas Lions’ recent performances, the veteran French coach said the team’s overall level is high and the talent pool is rich, yet the final step towards lifting titles remains missing.
“Morocco have one flaw that prevents them from embracing titles,” Le Roy said, explaining that the issue is not about quality, but about what happens in key moments when trophies are decided.
He added that Morocco often look strong across matches and tournaments, but the difference between reaching the late stages and actually winning is usually decided by small details, especially in pressure games.
Le Roy’s comments come at a time when Morocco continue to raise expectations after their progress on the international stage, with fans now demanding silverware to match the team’s reputation.
Despite his criticism, he stressed that Morocco remain among the strongest sides in Africa, and that fixing this single weakness could be enough to turn promising campaigns into championship triumphs.
