In an interview with the Spanish daily AS, Yanis Begraoui spoke about his ambition to one day join the senior national team of Morocco and compete in the World Cup wearing the colors of the Atlas Lions. The Estoril Praia forward, a Moroccan U23 international, clearly outlined his goals, as he hopes to continue his progress to reach the highest level with the national team.
During this interview, Begraoui also discussed his offensive profile. The Moroccan player explained that he does not see himself solely as a goal scorer, but also as a forward capable of participating in the game, dropping back, and creating space for his teammates. This vision of his role reflects his desire to be useful in various aspects of play.
Already crowned with Morocco U23, Yanis Begraoui won the U23 Africa Cup of Nations in 2023. On the club level, he was also a Ligue 2 champion with Toulouse during the 2021-2022 season. These are two significant achievements in a growing resume that accompany the development of a player on the rise.
Through this statement, the Moroccan forward sends a strong message: his dream of shining with Morocco is more alive than ever. Now well settled in Portugal, Begraoui continues to work with the hope of taking a new step forward and ultimately securing a place in the plans of the Moroccan national team.
