GOAL reported that Morocco head coach Mohamed Wahbi is considering calling up Youssef En-Nesyri for Morocco's November camp ahead of two matches against Niger in 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying. The games are in the third and fourth rounds of the qualifying campaign.
Call-up under consideration
According to information received by Kooora, En-Nesyri has caught Wahbi's eye of late. He has impressed enough to earn serious consideration for a November call-up.
Wahbi's striker preference
According to information received by Kooora, Wahbi is keen to keep El Kaabi on the outside looking in. Wahbi also wants a centre-forward who thrives inside the box rather than a false nine.
En-Nesyri's recent record
En-Nesyri has not pulled on the Morocco shirt once since Wahbi took charge. His last appearance for the Atlas Lions came at the most recent Africa Cup of Nations.
Across all competitions this season, En-Nesyri has played 13 matches for Al-Ittihad, scoring 7 goals and providing two assists. He has found the net in 4 of his last 5 Roshn League outings for the club.
Rahimi injury situation
Soufiane Rahimi's situation remains unclear 48 hours on from his injury against Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai.
