Speaking of changing nationalities.
Didnt Rosella Ayane use to play for the all the English sides through the ranks, before changing when it came to the seniors?
She does seem like genuinely proud to represent Morroco and has those connections to it. But I do wonder if she changed because she didn’t think she’d get a call up to England, or because she really did want to explore her Moroccan roots and that side of herself. Never really read into it so not sure if she’s spoken on it before.
yeah she did. i remember it’s how her and leah became best mates, and they’ve been friends since. there’s a funny story on it they told once with rosella having an allergic reaction in like the u16s camp or something. she changed to morroco at 25, i think.
Yep, to all of this.
And she has spoken on her decision before, she says she did it for her dad, who was Moroccan, and passed away when she was 13. Helps her feel connected to him and to reconnect with her heritage.
Yeah I do think it’s a genuine thing from her. She’s visited Morocco quite a few times now I think, and seems genuinely proud to represent them. I don’t think it was just some move to be able to play international football.
DA. Please...I mean, please.
Anyone who's played at youth level for one national team then not got picked for their seniors is changing nationality because they want to play football. Of course that's why. She is probably very happy to represent Morocco but don't act like she turned down England to do so.
This isn't a diss, btw. I don't care about players changing nationality. But it's obvious why most of them do it.
