Reports: Discussion Between the Federation and Club Presidents for an Early Start to the League
In a predictable move to align with international momentum, multiple sources have reported that the Royal Moroccan Football Federation discussed the possibility of an earlier start to the professional league for the upcoming season during a meeting last Friday between its president, Fouzi Lekjaa, and club presidents.
According to the available information, which has not yet been officially confirmed, the first division is expected to kick off at the beginning of August, while the second division is set to commence its competitions in September. However, these dates remain tentative pending the official announcement from the federation that will clarify the final details of the competition schedule.
This shift, if officially confirmed, is intended to accommodate the anticipated football congestion facing Moroccan football, especially with the national team’s participation in both the African Nations Championship and the Arab Cup, alongside the kingdom’s preparations to host the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, which will be a pivotal event in the continental football landscape.
It is worth noting that all these arrangements are still in the preliminary discussion phase, awaiting the official announcement that will define the final outlines of the next football season.
