Morocco manager threatens players who won’t participate in AFCON

European clubs are doing all they can to avoid sending their players to the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations tournament, with clubs in France and England in particular fearful of the potential impact of not having their players unavailable for important league fixtures. Morocco coach Vahid Halihodzic stated that he understood the atmosphere that potential call-ups may face, but that he would be accepting no excuses for European-based players who refuse to join up with the Atlas Lions. In the view of Halihodzic, any refused call-up to his Morocco side will result in the player never being called up by him again according to comments gathered by KingFut below.
