In a surprising twist for African football, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation is reportedly on the brink of terminating the contract of Atlas Lions’ head coach, Walid Regragui.
Regragui rose to prominence in 2022 after guiding Morocco to a historic FIFA World Cup semi-final in Qatar.
However, his fortunes took a downturn during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where the team suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat to South Africa.
The exact reasons for the decision to part ways with the France-born coach remain undisclosed.
Meanwhile, the Tanzania Football Federation has reportedly initiated talks with Regragui regarding a potential role as the head coach of the Taifa Stars.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future, Morocco currently leads its World Cup qualifying group with a perfect 15 points.
