Morocco's national football team will face the Netherlands in a friendly match on June 24, 2026, with seven key players unavailable due to injury or suspension, according to team officials. The match, held at a neutral venue, is part of both teams' preparations for upcoming international competitions.
The absent players include several regular starters, though specific names were not confirmed by the Moroccan Football Federation as of the match day. The Netherlands, meanwhile, field a strong squad led by Cody Gakpo, who scored twice in their recent 5-1 win over Sweden.
