Former Spain U21 star, Brahim Diaz has chosen to represent Morocco at the senior level instead of his native nation.
According to football analyst Fabricio Romano, the Real Madrid offensive midfielder will now represent the North African nation rather than his country of birth.
Despite having played just once for the Spanish senior national team, Brahim Diaz is still eligible to represent Morocco having represented Spain at the U17, U19, and U21 levels.
The 24-year-old has reportedly informed the Moroccan Federation of his final decision, according to Romano.
“He’s going to play for Morocco and not for Spain,” he said.
“Just a matter of time before it will be made official by all parties involved.”
Brahim Diaz can represent Morocco because he was born in Spain to a Moroccan father and a Spanish mother.
