Former Zambia and Ivory Coast manager, Herve Renard, has been announced as the coach of the Atlas Lion of Morocco.
Renard, who was fired by French Ligue 1 side, Lille last November following his side's poor
performance during his reign at the club, takes over from Ezzaki Badou, who resigned last week.
The 47-year-old, who won the African Nations Cup with Zambia in 2012 and Ivory Coast last year, has been tasked with leading the north African country to the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Renard was presented at a media conference on Tuesday in Rabat.
"I'm delighted to have been appointed coach of Morocco's national team. We have a busy schedule," Renard told a news conference in Rabat on Tuesday.
The team have won their opening two qualifiers for the next African Nations Cup.
"We must continue on this path, hoping that Moroccan football can hoist its colours at the highest level in Africa, and also represent the continent at the World Cup."
