Coach, my decision is made: Regragui reveals the behind-the-scenes of the Yamal case in Morocco

Walid Regragui detailed the efforts made to convince Lamine Yamal to choose Morocco over Spain. Upon his arrival in 2022, he worked with FRMF president Fouzi Lekjaa to establish a connection with Yamal and his family. Despite two years of outreach, Yamal ultimately confirmed his decision to play for Spain during a phone call in 2023. He was called up to the Spanish team and scored his first goal in his debut match.
