Ismail Baouf, defender for the Anderlecht B team, has officially obtained Moroccan citizenship and will represent Morocco at the international level, opting for the Atlas Lions over Belgium, where he previously played for youth teams.
Baouf, who recently turned 18, received his Moroccan passport this week, signifying his change in sporting allegiance. He is now eligible to join the Moroccan national team, with the U-20 squad anticipated as his first destination.
The young defender is expected to be included in the upcoming training camp for the U-20 team, providing much-needed depth to the team’s defense. Baouf’s inclusion is a significant boost, especially with the upcoming North African qualifying matches for the African U-20 Cup of Nations.
