Morocco’s Tangier and Rabat will host the games of the Club World Cup.
The multi-grammy award-winning Moroccan producer has recently made international headlines after his “Hayya Hayya” (better together) FIFA World Cup song.
The song featured Trinidad Cardona Davido and Aisha.
RedOne joined FIFA as Creative Entertainment Executive in December 2021.
