Moroccan National Team Denies Statements Attributed to Coach Regragui
Team Source Confirms Fabricated Quotes Circulating in Media
Rabat, Morocco – The Moroccan national football team has officially denied the authenticity of statements being attributed to head coach Walid Regragui that have circulated across local and international media platforms.
A reliable team source exclusively told Hespress that all recent quotes attributed to Regragui are “baseless fabrications”, confirming the coach hasn’t spoken to media since his post-match press conference following Morocco’s game against Niger.
Details of the Fabricated Statements
The disputed reports claimed Regragui expressed frustration about unwarranted criticism despite the team’s strong performance. These false statements suggested the coach was:
- Perplexed by doubts about his work
- Questioning pressure to leave despite success
- Highlighting Morocco’s CAF top ranking and FIFA ranking improvement
The fabricated comments specifically referenced Morocco’s impressive record of suffering only one defeat in the past year while maintaining consistent victories.
Timing of the Clarification
This official denial comes as Morocco prepares for its crucial World Cup 2026 qualifier against Tanzania on Tuesday, part of the sixth round of qualifiers. The team currently leads its qualification group.
The Moroccan Football Federation emphasized the importance of focusing on the upcoming match rather than responding to media misinformation.
