If the 2022 World Cup ended in victory for Argentina, several football teams distinguished themselves during this competition. Starting with France who managed to reach the final and who fought for two hours before facing the albiceleste during a penalty shootout. We also think of Morocco, which became THE first African team to reach the quarter-finals of the World Cup. On December 6, the Atlas Lions eliminated the Spanish team and won their winning ticket for the rest of the adventure.
This historic victory was joyfully celebrated by all Moroccans in the world. In France, the Moroccan people had indeed gathered in the streets and stormed the Avenue des Champs Elysées to celebrate. Same festive excitement in Morocco where the whole population was in the streets to celebrate. Against all expectations, the king himself also expressed his joy by mingling with the crowd!
Images reported by Al Jazeera journalist Nacir Abdessamad and the Moroccan daily Le Matin indeed showed King Mohammed VI wearing a football shirt in the colors of his country in a white car waving to the crowd…
King Mohammed VI appears emaciated
Two weeks after this sporting feat, King Mohammed VI has just signed a new remarkable appearance. The players of the Moroccan team were indeed received at the palace in Rabat, where they were once again congratulated by the king himself. All very elegant for the occasion, they of course posed alongside the sovereign and the photos show that the latter seems to have lost a lot of weight.

We recall that at the latest news, the king would no longer live with his wife Lalla Salma, who has not been seen for more than four years. If the Moroccan royal court has never confirmed or denied a possible rupture, the media now qualify her as a “disappeared princess”…
