Morocco will head to Spain this September to play two pre-FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 friendlies.
The Atlas Lions will face South American sides Chile and Paraguay during the late September FIFA international match window.
Morocco will commence their European friendly outing against Chile in Barcelona on September 23.
They will later shift base to Seville on September 27, where they will take on Paraguay.
The two South American sides did not qualify for the FIFA World Cup.
Morocco is in Group F at the Qatar finals, where they will face Belgium, Canada and Croatia.
The Atlas Lions will kick off their Group F campaign on November 23 against Croatia.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars Ghana has confirmed a second friendly date.
Ghana will face Switzerland in a pre-World Cup friendly to be played in the United Arab Emirates.
The friendly is set for November 17 in Abu Dhabi and looks set to help them gauge their readiness for the global showcase.
That friendly will come after the Black Stars’ big date against five-time World champions Brazil on September 23 at a venue yet to be confirmed by the Brazilian football federation.
Switzerland will test itself against African opposition ahead of their Group G opener against Cameroon on November 24.
The North African country recently parted ways with coach Valid Halilhodzic just three months before the World Cup.
The country’s federation said the decision was influenced by a disagreement on the direction the two parties wanted for the team ahead of the World Cup finals.
The 69-year-old had been in charge of the Atlas Lions since 2009, and he led them to the quarterfinals of the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon earlier this year.
Afterwards, he booked a place for them at the upcoming World Cup finals from November 20 to December 18.
