Brahim Díaz's start to the season has not been easy. After a promising summer where he played his role as Rodrygo's replacement well, the Moroccan player injured his abductor against Real Sociedad, just before the start of the Champions League. He missed a little over a month of competition, before making his return during the Clásico.
On this occasion, he gave an interview to the Moroccan press agency (MAP) on Monday to discuss his ambitions with the Moroccan selection. His dream is “to make history with the Moroccan team” and he expressed his gratitude to the supporters for the “warm welcome” they gave him. “The welcome to Oujda will remain one of the most precious moments of my career. »
After refusing to join Morocco on several occasions, Brahim Díaz finally agreed to take the plunge on March 2. Since then, he has played six matches with the Atlas Lions and finds himself at the heart of an institutional conflict between the Spanish federation and the Moroccan federation. Supported by the Cherifian Kingdom, he recalls the gratitude he feels towards the Moroccans: “I am very proud to wear the Moroccan national team jersey. I am grateful to Morocco and the entire African continent for all the love and warm welcome I have received.”
His injury deprived him of the November international break and the two matches against the Central African Republic. However, in September, Brahim Díaz shone by scoring two goals for the Atlas Lions: one against Gabon and, above all, a liberating goal in added time against Lesotho (1-0 victory) in qualifying for the CAN .
