Morocco’s head coach Walid Regragui has announced his 26-man squad for the upcoming matches against Niger and Tanzania (March 21 and 25 in Oujda) as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The list features several new additions.
Alongside the team’s key players, four newcomers will make their debut for the Atlas Lions in these crucial fixtures.

These young and talented players have impressed at their respective clubs, earning their first international call-up.
The 19-year-old winger has been outstanding for Club Brugge, delivering exceptional performances in both the Belgian league and the Champions League. His decisive brace against Atalanta in the Champions League playoffs showcased his immense talent.
A key player in Morocco’s U23 AFCON-winning squad (2023), Hamza Igamane (22 years old) receives his first senior call-up. The Glasgow Rangers striker has scored 13 goals this season, including 4 in the Europa League, attracting interest from several European clubs.
The 21-year-old right-back from Espanyol Barcelona, also a U23 AFCON champion, has been in top form in La Liga. His consistent performances have earned him a well-deserved spot in the Moroccan national team.
Bilal Nadir (21 years old) is making a name for himself at Olympique de Marseille. His first senior national team call-up reflects his steady development and ambition to grow further in his career.
