He highlighted that the "Atlas Lions" boast an exceptional group of players capable of challenging the strongest national teams globally.

Naybet elaborated that the Moroccan team features world-class players across various positions, complemented by significant squad depth. This, he noted, provides the technical staff with multiple options throughout the competition.

The former captain of the Moroccan national team stated in an interview with FIFA's official website: "We have a high-quality team with world-class players, and a fantastic squad that possesses talent and depth in all areas."

He added: "We must approach each match individually. Although we may not be among the favorites on paper, we trust in our ability to pose a real threat, and with the quality we possess, we can dream of going far."

Naybet concluded his remarks with a message full of optimism and confidence in the national team's capabilities, stating: "Who said we can't win the World Cup?" This was in reference to the "Atlas Lions'" potential to continue making history after their historic achievement of reaching the semi-finals in the 2022 edition.
