Morocco’s national team players Souffian El Karouani, and Monir Mohand Mohamedi have tested positive for COVID-19 this Friday, ahead of Morocco’s game against Egypt.
Morocco’s game against Egypt is part of the quarter-final in the 2021 African Cup of Nations (CAN).
Informed sources told Hesport that the PCR test results of both the goalkeeper Mohamedi and left-back El Karouani have shown positive for COVID-19, and therefore will not be part of CAN’s upcoming game.
Morocco is set to play against Egypt on Sunday, January 30, in Yaoundé’s stadium, starting at 4 p.m. local time.
In the previous CAN games, Turkey’s Hatayspor defender Ayoub El Kaabi, and Germany’s Eintracht Frankfurt defender Aymen Barkok have tested positive for COVID-19.
Additionally, some of the national team’s players have sustained injuries, including the international star Ryan Mmaee.
