It is without Achraf Hakimi that Morocco will face Mozambique and Uganda in friendly matches during the international break in November.

If there is a player who can come back quickly, it is Achraf. We have one of the best medical staffs in the world, like that of PSG. Our doctor went to Paris yesterday.
