In 2024, he preferred Morocco to Spain
A Spanish press release today, Wednesday, praised what Real Madrid star Brahim Diaz has achieved with the Moroccan national team following his decision to represent the Atlas Lions.
The newspaper said:come onUntil the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decides otherwise. Senegal’s appeal against Morocco’s recent Africa Cup of Nations win is still under review, with Brahim Diaz remaining unbeaten after opting to represent the Atlas Lions instead of Spain.
Almost two years of good news, success and joy… a period of prosperity that has already put Morocco on the world football map and among the most popular candidates to achieve great things in the current World Cup and upcoming tournaments.
Ibrahim is the real star of the project. Against the Netherlands, he made his thirtieth cap with Morocco and the Lions refused to lose as Issa Diop scored the equalizer that sent the match into extra time, then historic qualification was achieved on penalties.
In 30 matches with the Moroccan national team, Ibrahim won 25 and drew 5 without losing.

Since joining the Moroccan national team against Angola in March 2024, the Málaga native’s role has gradually increased, eventually becoming the team’s de facto captain (according to the paper). His digital input is key, but his calm and competitive spirit are just as important.
This was particularly noticeable at the Africa Cup of Nations as he scored 5 goals in 7 games, one in each of the first five games, and despite what happened against Senegal, including missing a penalty in the final, winning the title later made him the best Moroccan player in that tournament by a wide margin.
The Atlas Lions won all their matches except the first round against Mali and another semi-final against Nigeria, which also ended in a draw and was decided on penalties.
Ibrahim’s brilliance continues in the World Cup. The Brazilian team could not beat Morocco in the opening match, and the same happened later in the case of Scotland and Haiti.
It was expected that the match of the 32nd round would be very difficult, and it was so. But Morocco won and will face Canada in the round of 16.
Ibrahim continues his remarkable brilliance: four starts, two assists and, of course, without a loss… This is a regular pattern.
