Rabat- Head coach of the national team Badou Zaki has announced on Friday his 30-man squad for the pre-competition training camp in Portugal, with AC Milan’s Adel Taarabt as the most notable absentee.

The national team will play two friendly matches during its training camp in Portugal, one against Mozambique and the second against Angola.
