Real Madrid midfielder Brahim Diaz: I feel 100% Spanish and 100% Moroccan

Real Madrid midfielder Brahim Diaz is happy committing to Morocco.

Diaz has accepted selection so ending hopes of a Spain call.

He told El Larguero: “I've never pressured anyone to play for Spain and I never would… I feel 100% Spanish and 100% Moroccan… I'm not sure [if I would celebrate a goal against Spain] but I can tell you I'm 100% convinced of my decision."

“The decision is taken. There's no point thinking about 'what might have been if…'. It's not going to change anything.

"I wasn't thinking about whether Luis De La Fuente was going to call me when I made this decision."
