The specialized statistical platform “Sofascore” has unveiled the Best XI for the Saudi Arabian League in 2023, featuring three Moroccan players in the lineup.
The trio, led by Portuguese maestro Cristiano Ronaldo, includes Marwan Saadan (Al-Fateh), Faycal Fajr (Al-Wahda), and Mourad Batna (Al-Fateh), the third-highest scorer of the year.
The selection stirred widespread discussion on social media platforms, primarily due to the absence of key players like Abderrazak Hamdallah.
The platform’s administration clarified that the choices were based on criteria spanning from January 2023 to December 2023.
It’s noteworthy that the Saudi “Roshan” League has become an attractive destination for numerous football stars globally, including members of the Moroccan national team.
A collective migration to the Saudi Professional League (SPL) has been witnessed in recent times, with players such as Yassine Bounou, Ghanem Saiss, Abdelhamid Sabiri, Jawad El Yamiq, Munir El Haddadi, and others making the move.
The Moroccan representation in the Saudi league underscores the international allure and competitiveness of the SPL, contributing to the league’s growing reputation as a global football destination.
As these players continue to make a mark, their performances will undoubtedly be closely monitored, further elevating the league’s status on the international stage.
