Morocco Coach Praises Ismael Saibari’s Bayern Munich Move Morocco national team coach Mohamed Ouahbi has expressed pride in Ismael Saibari’s impending transfer to Bayern Munich, emphasizing the player’s commitment to representing his country during the World Cup. The 25-year-old forward, currently with PSV Eindhoven, is set to complete a €55 million move to the Bundesliga giants after undergoing a medical in the United States, where he is participating in the tournament with Morocco. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Ouahbi highlighted the significance of Saibari’s potential move, stating, “We are really proud when Moroccan players are able to play for big clubs like Bayern Munich.” He also noted that the player remains focused on his international duties, adding, “He is concentrating on playing for Morocco.” Ouahbi further remarked that Bayern’s approach to the transfer has been measured, with the club prioritizing communication that aligns with the player’s commitment to the national team. The Morocco coach also praised Bayern manager Vincent Kompany, whom he described as understanding the importance of the World Cup for Saibari. “I think he [Kompany] understands that the priority right now is Morocco,” Ouahbi said, expressing confidence that the transfer will ultimately benefit both the player and the club. Saibari, who scored in Morocco’s 1-1 draw against Brazil in their opening World Cup match, is expected to lead the attack against Scotland in the team’s next fixture. The game, scheduled for Saturday at 00:00 CEST, will test the forward’s ability to balance his club ambitions with his responsibilities on the international stage.#vincent_kompany #psv_eindhoven #ismael_saibari #morocco_coach #bavaria
