The participation of Ben Talek with the Egyptian national team is a confirmed fact.

Egyptian media reports have discussed Moroccan international Mahmoud Ben Taïk's desire to obtain Egyptian sports citizenship in order to represent the Pharaohs in the near future.

These reports linked this move to the left-back's participation with the Moroccan national team in the Arab Cup, indicating that the player is seeking to inquire about the possibility of changing the national team he represents at the international level, given his situation with the Atlas Lions and his chances of securing a spot in coach Mohamed Wahbi's squad.

A well-informed source denied the previous information, confirming that what is being circulated on this matter is not true.

According to a source from "Hesport," Mahmoud Ben Taïk has not received any contact from the Egyptian Football Association regarding the possibility of representing the Egyptian national team in the same sport, and the Moroccan international player is not considering this matter at all.

The same source confirmed that the player prioritizes the Moroccan national team and currently has no desire to change his international allegiance.

Our source clarified that Moroccan international Mahmoud Ben Taïk is focused on continuing to work and shine with Zamalek, especially given the performances he has been delivering recently.

It is worth noting that Ben Taïk was part of the Moroccan national team's reserve players in the latest edition of the Arab Cup, which the Atlas Lions won in Qatar, under the distinguished coach Tarik Skitoui.
