Shock in Morocco: Regragui sacked just 98 days before the World Cup | OneFootball

The Moroccan national team was left without a coach 98 days before the start of the World Cup. The federation decided to end the tenure of Walid Regragui, the coach who led the team to a historic fourth place in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The Moroccan coach had established the national team as one of the African powerhouses in recent years, even reaching the final of the African Cup, where they lost to Senegal.

Amid rumors about his departure, it also emerged that Jorge Sampaoli had a preliminary agreement to take over the position, although the negotiation ultimately did not materialize.

According to Moroccan media, the main candidate to take the position would be Mohamed Ouahbi, the current coach of the Under-20 national team, who could lead the team that will share a group with Brazil, Scotland, and Haiti in the upcoming World Cup.
