How Morocco can benefit from Wael Mohya in Bundesliga

Morocco returns to international action in September with the start of 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. Among the targets is 17-year-old Wael Mohya, a winger playing for Bundesliga side Borussia Mönchengladbach. Bild reported that Mohya has agreed to represent Morocco, having previously featured for German youth teams.

Last result: France 2-0 Morocco (2026-07-09).

What stands out about Mohya’s career so far?

Mohya’s key asset is tactical versatility, allowing him to play across attacking roles including right wing, attacking midfielder, and left wing. Last season he made 13 appearances as an attacking midfielder for the senior side, scoring twice against Bayern Munich and Heidenheim. In the same role with the youth team, he featured 29 times, contributing 11 goals or assists.

On the right wing, he played just one senior match without scoring. On the left, he logged four games for the under-19 side with one assist, plus a single senior outing against Hoffenheim where he provided one key pass.

Why is Morocco interested in Mohya?

Morocco needs young attacking talent capable of delivering at the highest level. Mohya, still only 17, brings technical skill and adaptability across multiple roles, giving coaches flexibility in team shape. His prior experience with German youth teams adds to his readiness for international duty.

What’s next?

Morocco resumes action in September with 2027 AFCON qualifiers. If Mohya is called up, he could provide fresh attacking options as the Atlas Lions look to bounce back after recent results.
