Gianni Infantino said FIFA considers Morocco among the leading forces in world football and capable of winning the 2026 FIFA World Cup, in a video posted on his official Instagram account.
Responding to a question about Morocco’s prospects at the 2026 tournament, Infantino said the team “can win the next World Cup,” citing what he described as Morocco’s Under 20 World Cup title and a semifinal run at the last World Cup, calling it a special and emotional moment for Moroccan fans.
He said Morocco’s progress reflects not only improved technical skills but also the belief it belongs among football’s major powers, praising the work of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation and attributing leadership to King Mohammed VI.
The text said Moroccan fans have reacted cautiously to praise after the recent AFCON final, and that the World Cup draw placed Morocco in Group C with Brazil, Scotland and Haiti.
