Noussair Mazraoui

Noussair Mazraoui is one of the most technically complete right-backs of his generation, a product of Ajax's academy who developed into a Champions League-level performer before moving to Bayern München and then Manchester United in 2024. Comfortable in possession and capable of contributing in tight spaces, he is the natural heir to Achraf Hakimi on Morocco's right flank when tactical shape demands it — though the two can coexist. His ability to play as a centre-back in a back three adds versatility Morocco's coaching staff genuinely value. Injury disruptions at club level have occasionally interrupted his momentum.
