According to Footmercato, after Germany national team coach Jürgen Klopp expressed strong interest in Ebimbe, Morocco national team coach Mohamed Ouahbi was also asked about the situation regarding this forward.

The Eintracht Frankfurt forward had been closely monitored by Morocco in recent months but ultimately chose to represent Germany. Ouahbi subsequently explained that had Ebimbe chosen Morocco, he would have been called up to the "Atlas Lions".
"We've been monitoring Ebimbe since last season and he was always on our preliminary squad list. He's a very attractive player for us, but after his injury, it was difficult to imagine him taking part in the World Cup. However, he had been on our preliminary squad list for a year, and I don't think Germany had done the same. He performed well at the start of the season and deserved to be selected.
We visited him and monitored his progress, and I also spoke with him by phone to explain our plans, but no promises were made, and ultimately, he made the choice himself. Representing Morocco is not something you can get by just saying it; it's something you have to work hard to earn. He deserved to be called up, and I don't deny that, but he chose Germany, and we wish him luck."
