The departure of Walid Regragui from the Morocco national football team is considered almost a done deal, although it has not yet been made official. Within the Confederation of African Football, the matter is reportedly seen as 99.99% complete.
The reason for this confidence lies in the name chosen to replace him — a name that is currently the clear favorite within the Federation itself. A dream candidate.
According to MARCA, it is Xavi Hernández, who has been a free agent since leaving FC Barcelona a season and a half ago.
The Moroccan Federation is convinced that the Catalan coach, eager to embark on a major long-term project, is the ideal choice to lead Morocco into a World Cup where they are expected to confirm the historic fourth-place finish achieved at FIFA World Cup.
It would be a challenging objective for the Moroccans, who continue to grow stronger with each passing day.
