A new reason for hope for Morocco in its objective that Munir wears his national shirt. After the dismissal of CAS to his appeal against the FIFA resolution that did not allow the Sevilla player to defend the Moroccan shirt, FIFA itself is now the one rethinking the case.
As explained iusport– Portal specialized in the legal side of sport- Munir, born in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, but of Moroccan parents could not request a change of “sports” nationality based on the regulation of selection changes for players with two nationalities. Specifically the problem These are the three games he played with the U21 team, being over 21 years old. Thus, It would have nothing to do with the 10 minutes he played with the absolute in 2014, at a time when he stood out in Barcelona, thanks to the update of FIFA regulations that now allows the change to those who have played a maximum of three games before reaching the age of 21.
As indicated by iusport, FIFA could reconsider the case after a review of the interpretation criteria. “Players who participated in an official competition with their current federation in these circumstances could not have foreseen, as the regulations were previously written, that such participation could prevent them from changing federation in the future“They cite comments made public by FIFA.
Therefore, Morocco still hopes that With this reinterpretation, Munir will be able to wear the shirt of his national team, which would be great news for your aspirations.
