My Take
Azzedine Ounahi is a player I first really noticed during Morocco's 2022 World Cup run, and that timing wasn't an accident. A midfielder from Casablanca who came up through the youth ranks before making his senior debut in 2022, he turned a single tournament into a launchpad, and the move to La Liga's Girona felt like the natural next step. The Officer of the Order of the Throne honor underlines how much that World Cup meant back home. At 182 cm he has the frame to control midfield, and I'm curious whether he can build something lasting rather than be remembered for one breakout.
Overview

Ounahi made his international debut in 2022, after previously being capped by the nation's youth teams at under-20 level. He was chosen in Morocco's squad for the FIFA World Cup in 2022.
