Sofyan Amrabat has decided to step away from Morocco’s national team while Mohamed Ouahbi remains in charge, but he has not closed the door on an international comeback.

The midfielder announced the decision in a post on his official Instagram account. He described it as difficult, while saying that, at this stage, he no longer feels able to continue representing Morocco under the current coach.

Amrabat said wearing the national shirt had been “the greatest honor” throughout his career. His relationship with the team began with his first call-up about 12 years ago, and he said he had given everything for his country during that period.
