After many stories written about whether or not Nayef Aguerd would be allowed to represent Morocco by West Ham United, the answer is yes, they have.
That’s because the player was pictured at his national team’s training session on Thursday evening, after arriving at the Mohammed VI Complex from London.
H24Info have a big article on the matter, recalling that the call up of Jawad El Yamiq seemed to confirm the idea that West Ham wouldn’t allow Aguerd to represent his country.
However, ‘to the great surprise’ of Morocco fans, the Hammers defender was present on Thursday, even if he was seemingly training to one side.
That means he might not start against Tanzania, but it is good news, suggesting that whatever was keeping West Ham from letting him travel is now over.
One to keep an eye on over the coming days, with Morocco set to face their opponents on Tuesday.
Since the start of the season, Aguerd has made 14 appearances for West Ham United in all competitions, scoring two goals and assisting another.
