FIFA WC: Morocco Forward Saibari Ruled Out Of Quarter-final Against France
FIFA World Cup: Morocco have been dealt a big blow ahead of their crucial FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-final clash against a strong France side, as their prime forward Ismael Saibari has been ruled out of the match due to injury.
Morocco head coach Mohammed Ouabhi confirmed Saibari's exit in the pre-match press conference on Thursday. According to Ouabhi, the forward could not recover on time after picking a hamstring injury during Morocco's round of 16 victory against Canada. However, the coach is hopeful that the 25-year-old will be fit for the semi-finals if their team makes the cut.
"He's not ready, but I hope it's not the end of the tournament for him," Ouahbi told reporters ahead of the clash.
