Rayane Bounida has received his first call-up to the Morocco National Football Team after impressing with AFC Ajax. Long regarded as a promising talent, the 20-year-old attacking midfielder has steadily developed and now takes a major step in his international career following strong performances at club level.
Eligible to represent both Belgium and Morocco, Bounida has officially chosen Morocco, ending speculation over his international future.
New head coach Mohamed Ouahbi has included him in the squad for upcoming matches against Ecuador and Paraguay, with the player already joining the group in Madrid.
