Ayoub El Kaabi continues his impressive start in Greece. The Moroccan striker scored his 9th goal of the season in the league during the 11th round of the Stoiximan Super League, perfectly converting a penalty in the 37th minute against Atromitos. This new goal reaffirms his status as a key player for Olympiakos.
The 32-year-old forward is now enjoying his best start since arriving in Greece. Fueled by impressive consistency and growing efficiency, El Kaabi dominates offensive play and significantly contributes to his club’s leadership in the standings.
An ideal performance level ahead of the AFCON
This outstanding form comes as the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations approaches, where El Kaabi is expected to be among the key players for the Atlas Lions.
His call-up is beyond doubt, and if Morocco achieves the desired run in the tournament, the striker could be absent in Greece until January 18, 2026, the date of the final. This possibility reflects Morocco’s legitimate ambition to go all the way in the competition.
A contract situation still open
Upon his return from the AFCON, El Kaabi will enter the last six months of his contract. Several foreign clubs are monitoring his situation, while Olympiakos is eager to extend his contract as soon as possible.
