As the anticipated match against Niger approaches, players of the Moroccan national team, the Atlas Lions, continue to arrive at the Mohammed VI Football Academy in Maâmora, where the initial team gathering has begun. The majority of the players called up by coach Walid Regragui for the March training camp have already joined.
Since Monday, players have been arriving at the academy in succession. Among the prominent names who arrived early are Achraf Hakimi, Brahim Diaz, Munir Mohamedi, Yassine Bounou, Nayef Aguerd, Mehdi Benabid, Amine Adli, Soufiane Rahimi, Adam Aznou, Abde Ezzalzouli, Abdel Abqar, Jawad El Yamiq, Jamal Harkass, Azzedine Ounahi, Eliesse Ben Seghir, and Oussama Sahraoui.
In the evening, they were joined by Sofyan Amrabat, Ismael Saibari, Youssef En-Nesyri, and Oussama Targhalline. The players called up for the first time by Regragui also arrived, except for Chemsdine Talbi, who is dealing with a minor injury according to his club. Among these new players are Hamza Igamane, Omar El Hilali, and Bilal Nadir.
However, the national team is not yet complete, according to official updates. Bilal El Khannouss and Noussair Mazraoui are expected to join the training camp on Tuesday, along with Chemsdine Talbi, who will arrive after recovering from his minor injury.
