President of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, Fouzi Lekjaa, and President of the Confederation of African Football, Patrice Motsepe, are convening to discuss a solution to the crisis involving the detention of the RS Berkane team at Algiers airport.
According to a Hesport source, Lekjaa, Motsepe, and members of the CAF Executive Committee are meeting in Rabat to resolve the crisis.
The same source indicated that the CAF will contact Algerian Football Federation officials to finalize the procedures for the Moroccan team’s entry into Algeria to play the first leg of the CAF Confederation Cup semi-final.
Algerian authorities earlier today seized the luggage of the RS Berkane team upon their arrival at the airport, before deciding to inspect the players’ clothing due to the team’s jersey featuring a complete map of Morocco, including the southern provinces.
