After departure of Walid Regragui, who has mutually agreed to part ways with the national federation all necessary documents have now been signed, formally sealing the end of Regragui’s tenure. His exit clears the path for Mohamed Ouahbi, who is widely expected to step into the role of head coach in the coming days.
Ouahbi will not be alone in the dugout. João Sacramento and Youssouf Hadji are set to join him as assistant coaches, forming a technical team that blends international experience with strong local roots.
The transition marks a significant shift for the Atlas Lions, particularly after a period in which Regragui’s leadership brought heightened global attention to Moroccan football. While the reasons behind the separation have not been detailed publicly, both parties are understood to have reached an amicable agreement.
For Ouahbi, the task ahead is immediate and demanding. Expectations remain high, and continuity will be key as the team prepares for upcoming competitive fixtures. The inclusion of Sacramento, known for his analytical approach, alongside Hadji’s deep understanding of Moroccan football culture, suggests a carefully considered restructuring rather than a hurried replacement.
As the federation moves forward, the focus will quickly turn from paperwork to performance, with supporters eager to see how the new technical bench shapes the next phase of Morocco’s ambitions.
