According to Spanish outlet 'AS', Brahim Diaz has not yet made a decision on the national team he will play for and is working on getting dual nationality. He could choose between playing for Spain or Morocco if he finishes his paperwork.

Real Madrid midfielder Brahim Diaz has initiated procedures to obtain dual nationality, according to 'AS'. As a result, the 24-year-old could choose between playing for Spain or Morocco if he finishes his paperwork.

In this way, Diaz makes it clear that he is not closing the door to the Moroccan national team in case Spanish coach Luis de la Fuente continues not to count on him. Moreover, the Atlas Lions are working on convincing him to play for them.

However, he still has to get dual nationality to be able to choose between the two national teams. His grandmother was Moroccan and the process is taking a long time.

The international break in March could be the deadline for Luis De La Fuente. If he does not call him up then, he could push Brahim to Morocco, as he would be a big draw for the North African team and would have a lot of recognition.
