A blow for Morocco!
Abde Ezzalzouli is likely to miss the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The Moroccan team will certainly not have been able to avoid the worst for their winger. Having picked up a leg injury during the Atlas Lions’ friendly against Norway at Sports Illustrated Stadium in New Jersey, the news is not reassuring for Abde Ezzalzouli just days before the kick-off of the 2026 World Cup.
According to reports, initial medical examinations have revealed a sprain of the medial ligament in the 24-year-old striker’s knee. This clearly jeopardises the Moroccan international’s participation in the World Cup.He is expected to be sidelined for between three and four weeks, meaning he will be unable to play in the World Cup. This is a major blow for Morocco, who will ultimately be unable to count on their striker.
