The Moroccan star Brahim Diaz reaffirmed his ability to shine with Real Madrid after returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, despite the recent setback in his final match with the Moroccan national team, where he missed a penalty that could have brought his team the title.

According to the Spanish newspaper "AS," Diaz did not allow this psychological setback to affect his performance. Instead, he used the past period to strengthen his mental fortitude and delivered impactful performances in the three matches he played after his return, against Villarreal, Rayo Vallecano, and Valencia.

The Moroccan star was a crucial element in creating opportunities and providing key passes, directly contributing to Real Madrid's goals against both Rayo Vallecano and Valencia.

His recent performances have highlighted his ability to play on the wings or behind the main striker, which gives him significant tactical flexibility in coach Álvaro Arbeloa's formations, especially with the absence of Rodrygo and the team's need to generate offensive creativity.

This brilliance comes before the Moroccan player signs a new contract with Real Madrid until the summer of 2030, a clear indication of the great confidence the club places in him.

With Diaz regaining the confidence of the Bernabeu fans and his physical and technical readiness, it seems he is on the verge of securing a permanent starting position in the royal team's lineup this season.
