Atlas Lions: new blood in attack

Walid Regragui, the coach of the Atlas Lions, is a busy man. Between the 2025 African Cup of Nations at home and the 2026 World Cup, the challenges are numerous. To meet them, he is banking on youth and the emergence of new offensive talents.

Two names come up repeatedly: El Mehdi Maouhoub and Hamza Igamane. The first, revealed at Raja Club Athletic, panicked the counters at Dynamo Moscow. Arriving in Russia after the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, he scored 7 goals and provided 3 assists in just 19 matches. Enough to catch the eye of the national coach.
