Morocco: Mohamed Ouahbi set to become Walid Regragui's assistant?

A change is on the horizon for Walid Regragui's staff on the Atlas Lions' bench.

According to reports circulating in the Moroccan press in recent hours, Mohamed Ouahbi is tipped to join the senior national team's coaching staff as Walid Regragui's assistant. Currently in charge of Morocco's U20 side, the Belgian-Moroccan coach made headlines by leading his squad on a historic run at the most recent U20 World Cup.

As things stand, Walid Regragui remains firmly at the helm. Despite the defeat in the CAN 2025 final in Rabat against Senegal, the Moroccan head coach has been confirmed by the FRMF. The federation recently dismissed all resignation rumors, assuring that the 50-year-old tactician will lead the squad at least until the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with his contract running until July 31.
