Morocco’s World Cup preparations have suffered a setback as Ez Abde could be ruled out of the 2026 World Cup.
Injured during his last match, Ez Abde has suffered a sprain of the medial collateral ligament in his knee, according to initial medical examinations.
This is a tough blow that is expected to keep him off the field for three to four weeks, virtually ruling out his participation in the tournament.
For Mohamed Ouahbi, this marks the beginning of a real headache as he seeks to replace the Moroccan winger, whose drive and speed were major assets for the attack.
Fans are holding their breath in the hope of a miraculous recovery, but the timing now seems to be against him.
