Abdellah Ouazane, the outstanding 17-year-old from Míchel’s Ajax who remembers Lamine Yamal
He Ajax He has one of the great promises of world football on his hands. Abdellah Ouazaneborn January 15, 2009, is only 17 years old, but he is already taking advantage of the opportunities it is giving him Michel Sanchez to leave glimpses of a special talent. The young Moroccan is gaining prominence in the Dutch first team, where he stands out for his self-confidence.
His emergence has been especially striking in recent days, accompanying the sensations of goals. Ouazane had already left good impressions in Ajax’s youth ranks and in the Youth League, but now he is transferring that potential to professional football. On Thursday he scored a real goal in the Conference League and this Sunday he scored again in the Eredivisie. His European goal was a new example of the quality he possesses and his ability to make a difference.
Due to his audacity, his one-on-one ability and his ability to unbalance his football, he is reminiscent of Lamine Yamal. Both share that spark of players capable of inventing something different in each action, with a naturalness and confidence that allows them to dare anything. But Ouazane not only stands out for his technical conditions, but also because he is beginning to take on honors very soon, without hiding and claiming prominence in a scenario as demanding as that of Ajax. His progression is also reflected on the international level, as he has already made his debut with Morocco, a team he opted for despite being born in the Netherlands, a country with which he could also play.

His potential has not gone unnoticed by the big European clubs either. The young talent is already on the agenda of important teams, while Ajax seeks to protect one of its big bets for the future. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is eight million euros, a figure that seems to fall short if you take into account the potential he has in his legs. With a contract until 2028, the Dutch club is calm.
