Anderlecht announced on Monday that its Moroccan forward Taoufik Ben Taieb has been given the green light by the club's medical staff to join up with the Morocco national team.
The player suffered a facial injury during Anderlecht's match against Zulte Waregem on Saturday. In a statement, the club said the medical staff had assessed the injury and authorised him to travel for international duty.
Ben Taieb's availability is a boost for Morocco as the national team prepares for its upcoming fixtures. The club did not specify the exact nature of the facial injury or how long he might be sidelined if the problem worsens.
Anderlecht said it would continue to monitor the player's condition in coordination with the Moroccan federation.
