Norway loses Moroccan gem

Osame Sahraoui, the promising winger of LOSC Lille, has decided: it is with the Morocco jersey that he will write the rest of his footballing story. This decision, first announced by the Norwegian media, puts an end to a long suspense regarding his choice of national selection.

The 23-year-old personally informed Norway coach Ståle Solbakken of his decision. “It is after careful consideration that Osame has chosen to play for Morocco,” said Solbakken, visibly disappointed but respectful of his player’s choice. “We obviously wish him good luck for the future.”
