Plover ID? (1 Viewer)

Hello,
Can you help with identification of this plover species?

I'm really confused because I thought first that the bird in the picture could be the greater sand plover (Charadrius leschnaultii) : long leggs, long beak,front abrupt, general shap larger looks like Pluvialis sp but smaller.
However, the bird has a white collar like Kentish Plover (Charadrius alexandrinus).

the picture come from Eastern Morocco !!

what do you think? I wait your comments.
