PSV’er looks forward to the World Cup: “A dream that comes true”

In just over two weeks, the 2026 FIFA World Cup will kick off in Canada, Mexico and the United States, and the necessary PSV players can also prepare to represent their country at the global finals. Left-back Anass Salah-Eddine is one of those PSV players who gets to represent his country.

The defender, like Ismael Saibari, has just been selected for Morocco’s World Cup squad. Salah-Eddine is in any case very excited about the World Cup, and this is what the left back lets it be known on Instagram.

''A dream come true: playing for my country at the World Cup. If you had told the younger me, the child who watched these matches and silently dreamed, that my name would one day be on that list… you probably wouldn’t have believed you. But here we are'', reads.

After that, the PSV player also reaches out to friends, teammates and family. ''To my family, coaches, teammates and everyone around me: thank you for supporting me, guiding me and keeping me grounded with both feet on the ground. To the fans, in Morocco and everywhere in the world... thank you for the support, the prayers, the love. I feel it, I carry it with me and I do not take it for granted,'' writes the defender.

Morocco plays at the World Cup in Pool C against Brazil, Haiti and Scotland. ''Now is the time to play with pride, to fight for every minute and to give everything for the emblem. One nation. One dream'', concludes the PSV player.
