Morocco's Abde Ezzalzouli Leaves the National Squad for Injury Recovery

Abdessamad Ezzalzouli has left the Moroccan national team to focus on his recovery after suffering a knee injury that ruled him out of the World Cup.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the Real Betis winger will return to Spain, where he will spend a few days with his family in Elche before heading to France for a specialized rehabilitation program.

The decision to leave the national squad was made in consultation with his club, with the primary goal of allowing Ezzalzouli to recover as quickly and effectively as possible from his torn lateral collateral ligament.

Ezzalzouli suffered the injury before the World Cup and was eventually forced to withdraw from the tournament.

The Morocco national team will now have to navigate the competition without one of their key attacking players.

For Ezzalzouli, his top priority is now to make a full recovery and return to his best form in time for the next season.
