If he plays even one minute of football at senior level for Morocco, he won’t be eligible to change his mind and represent Italy in future.
Mastour was born in Reggio-Emilia from Moroccan parents and spent his entire life in the Peninsula.
He would become the youngest ever player to represent Morocco.
