In a decisive move, the rising Moroccan talent Abdullah Ouzane officially announced his choice to represent the Moroccan national football team, ending the debate about his international future after his remarkable performance with Ajax Amsterdam. This announcement came after an impressive display by the young player in his team’s match against Sion, where he assisted two goals and led Ajax to a 5-3 victory, in a match attended by the national coach Mohammed Wahbi, who closely monitored the player.
Ouzane’s path, at just 17 years old, was not easy; his career witnessed important turning points. A year ago, he was close to transferring to Real Madrid, but medical tests prevented the deal from being completed. He returned to Ajax and signed a new contract extending until 2028. This tough experience did not diminish the Moroccan star’s determination; rather, it increased his resolve to improve his level, which was evident in his outstanding performance with Ajax’s youth team, where he scored six goals and assisted nine others in 33 matches.
Abdullah Ouzane’s brilliance did not stop there; he played a key role in leading Morocco’s under-17 national team to victory in the African Cup and was chosen as the best player of the tournament, drawing significant attention to him. With his promotion to Ajax’s first team, Ouzane proved his worth by scoring his first goal against Heerenveen and continued to deliver strong performances, the latest being assisting two goals against Sion, confirming he has the potential to be a future star.
Despite his young age, Ouzane possesses a highly professional mindset. He emphasized the importance of patience and hard work, preferring to play in midfield but accepting to play as a left winger. This maturity in managing his football career, along with his decisive choice to represent Morocco over the Netherlands, reflects his ambition and desire to achieve his goals. The Moroccan sports community is now eagerly awaiting the national coach Wahbi’s official call-up to see Abdullah Ouzane wearing the “Atlas Lions” jersey and translating his talent into international achievements.
