Shobier Warns Regragui of Imminent Changes Within His Technical Staff
The Egyptian media personality Ahmed Shobeir, the former goalkeeper for Al Ahly Club and the Egyptian national team, surprised followers with a notable comment regarding the circulating news about the anticipated changes within the technical staff of the Moroccan national football team, directing a series of observations he considered "concerning" if proven true.
In radio statements reported by the press on Tuesday, Shobeir confirmed that the discussion about renewing confidence in Walid Regragui as head coach, along with the appointment of Mohamed Wahbi to the technical staff, raises several questions about the clarity of the technical vision within the national team.
Shobeir stated that Moroccan reports indicate that Regragui will continue to lead the technical management, with the addition of Mohamed Wahbi, who won the Youth World Cup with the Moroccan national team, to the assistant staff. He considered that this step might represent the beginning of issues within the coaching staff.
The Egyptian media personality added that logic dictates one of two clear options: either to retain Regragui and grant him full authority to choose his assistant staff and work according to his vision, or to thank him and rely on a new coach to fully lead the national team's technical project.
Shobeir continued by saying that appointing a coach who has won the FIFA U-20 World Cup in an assistant role raises questions, emphasizing that his comments stem from his experience in the field and his aim is to highlight what could become a source of tension within the technical staff, despite full respect for all the names proposed.
