National coach Mohamed Wahbi confirmed that his communication with the national team players was positive, emphasizing that the atmosphere within the group is dominated by a sense of responsibility and a desire to perform at their best during the upcoming events. This came during the press conference held today, Thursday, March 19, 2026, at the Mohammed VI Football Complex, dedicated to announcing the national team's list for the friendly matches against Ecuador and Paraguay.
Wahbi's statement came in response to a question concerning the atmosphere in the players' locker room and the nature of the relationship between them, especially after the discussions that accompanied the national team's participation in the recent Africa Cup of Nations, where he confirmed that the team is cohesive and working with a high team spirit. The national team coach explained that all players are aware of the size of the responsibility placed upon them, and that the common goal is to appear honorably during the upcoming World Cup finals, highlighting that the current stage requires focus and staying away from anything that would affect the harmony within the team. The national team is preparing to play two friendly matches, where they will meet the Ecuador national team on March 27 in Madrid, before facing the Paraguay national team on March 31 in the French city of Lens, as part of the preparation for the upcoming events and strengthening harmony within the national group.
