Morocco’s Local National Team Lands in Nairobi Ahead of CHAN 2024

The Moroccan local national football team arrived in Nairobi, Kenya, early Monday morning, to compete in the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN), co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania.

The squad received a warm and festive welcome at the airport, with traditional Kenyan performances showcasing the host country’s hospitality.

The Atlas Lions were drawn into Group B alongside Kenya, Zambia, Angola, and the DR Congo — a challenging group full of ambition.
