Morocco coach Walid Regragui initially informed the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) last Friday of his intention to resign following the national team’s elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Côte d’Ivoire, according to sources from Hesport.
Regragui held multiple meetings with Fouzi Lekjaa, president of the FRMF and National Teams Committee, to analyze the reasons for the team’s early exit from the tournament. During these discussions, Regragui expressed his desire to step down.
The same source revealed that, by Sunday night, neither the FRMF nor Regragui had agreed on his future. After further discussions and consultations, Regragui reversed his decision to stay on as coach.
The FRMF and Regragui agree to continue the work and prepare a strong team capable of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, achieving positive results in the finals, and winning the next edition of the AFCON, hosted by Morocco next summer.
