Lamine Yamal not included in the Morocco squad
Lamine Yamal has been one of the standout performers for FC Barcelona in the early stages of the season. The young footballer has excelled on the field, rewarding the confidence Xavi Hernández placed in him.
His impact has been so significant that both Morocco and Spain have sought to secure the player's international future. Born and developed in Spain, Yamal had the choice between representing Spain or Morocco, his father's country. As reported by SPORT, the Barcelona gem ultimately chose to play for the Spanish national team.
Lamine Yamal is included in Luis De la Fuente's preliminary list for the matches against Georgia and Cyprus, and it seems likely that he will make it onto the final list under the Riojan coach.
However, the Moroccan squad has released its list of call-ups for the upcoming matches against Liberia and Burkina Faso, with Lamine Yamal notably absent. The Barcelona player's decision has been to compete for the Spanish national team, effectively ruling out the Moroccan squad.
Meanwhile, the Moroccan call-up does include Abde, who is currently a focal point in the transfer market and could potentially leave Barcelona in the coming hours.
