Morocco's senior national team coach Walid Regragui was at the Santiago Bernabeu during Real's victory over Real Sociedad, AS reports. According to the newspaper, his presence is linked to Morocco's interest in Brahim Díaz (24). The player only had a few minutes of action in the match, coming on as an 87th-minute substitute. Discussions have been going on ever since. As a reminder, Regragui said at a press conference on August 31, 2023: "Of course we're interested in Brahim... he's a player with quality who can help the national team".
The Atlas Lions coach has been approaching the player for some time now.Last season, he travelled to Milan to meet him. "We had a sincere discussion and he was honest. We're not in the negotiation business. He has a cooling-off period between us and Spain. He loves Morocco, but it will be his decision," he declared.
