Msuva: Why Tanzania should follow Morocco's example

The Taifa Stars striker has urged the local federation to turn their focus to youth development

Tanzania striker Simon Msuva believes the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) should focus more on youth development, much like they do in Morocco where he plays his club football.

The Taifa Stars forward, who is on the books of Difaa El Jadida, believes Morocco is one of Africa's premier football nations not by chance but rather due to the massive investment they make in youth development.

“They take youth football programmes seriously such when a player reaches 17-years-old, his skills are extraordinary and there are many young players of good quality, who can even be included in the senior team and make a big impact,” Msuva is quoted by Daily News.
