Football: El Mehdi Maouhoub, the young Moroccan talent, joins Dynamo Moscow for 1.8 million Euros
El Mehdi Maouhoub, the Moroccan forward, is set to join Dynamo Moscow, leaving Raja Casablanca in a transfer estimated at nearly 1.8 million euros, according to several sports media reports on Tuesday.
The 21-year-old player, who is part of the national Olympic team at the Paris Olympic Games, is said to have signed a five-year contract with the Moscow-based top division club after successfully passing various medical examinations, according to the specialized website “Championnat.com”.
The imminent arrival of the Atlas Lion Cub was confirmed by the chairman of the club’s board, Dmitri Gafin. “It’s true. Most likely, information about this will appear on the club’s channels shortly”, said the official, quoted by “bookmaker-ratings.ru”, a reference site for soccer specialists and professionals.
Maouhoub played 24 matches last season across all competitions for Raja Casablanca, scoring 9 goals and providing 1 assist. The arrival of the Moroccan striker will strengthen Futbolny Klub Dynamo Moscow, currently the runner-up in the Russian championship with 6 points at the end of the second matchday of the competition.
This transfer marks a significant step in Maouhoub’s career, offering an opportunity for the young Moroccan talent to shine on the European stage and contribute to Dynamo Moscow’s ambitions.
