Morocco coach Walid Regragui says his staff are working to arrange strong friendly matches in the coming weeks, with Argentina at the top of their wish list — though he admits it may not be easy to finalise.
Speaking after Morocco’s 1-0 win over Congo in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Regragui said: “Our goal is to play a match against Argentina. It’s true that we’re in talks with them about it, but it remains complicated, and it may not happen in the end.”

He added: “As I said before, there are also African teams we want to face. We’ve received some requests, but in the end, it doesn’t depend only on us. We’ll adapt this week to see which team is available.”
Regragui confirmed that Argentina remains the priority, saying: “We’ll wait for their answer in the next two or three days. If it happens, it will be a big match for us. If not, we might face an African or even an Asian team, which would give us a different style of play.”
He concluded: “We want to play against the biggest teams, but it doesn’t depend only on us.”
