The wife of FIFA’s president turned heads during her visit to the beautiful blue city of Chefchaouen, Morocco.
She was spotted carrying a special item featuring a map of Morocco, reportedly signed by football stars Hakimi and Mimi Leblanc.
The symbolic gesture reflects the growing connection between international football leadership and Morocco’s rich cultural heritage.
Infantino’s current visit to Morocco includes family time in Chefchaouen and Taghazout Bay near Agadir.
During his Chefchaouen tour, FIFA head explored Chefchaouen’s narrow blue-painted alleys, stopped at the central Outa El Hammam square, and received briefings on the city’s architectural heritage.
According to locals, Infantino expressed appreciation for the city’s charm and hospitality while meeting with residents.
Earlier this week, Infantino inaugurated FIFA’s new regional development office for North and West Africa in Sale, located beside the Mohammed VI Football Complex.
The inauguration marked a milestone in FIFA’s collaboration with football authorities in the North African country,
The timing of these visits is particularly significant as Morocco prepares for major international football events.
Participating in the royal reception presided over by King Mohammed VI for the Throne Day celebrations, Infantino commended Morocco’s exceptional infrastructure achievements, saying they have elevated the country into the “global football elite.”
Morocco has emerged as an increasingly influential player in international football, with substantial investments in facilities, youth development, and hosting capabilities.
