Moroccan left-back Fouad Zahouani of Union Touarga is being linked with a switch to Ajax U21, with the 20-year-old defender reportedly attracting interest from the Dutch club’s second team in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie.
Zahouani, born in Casablanca on 18 April 2006, is valued at €1.00m according to Transfermarkt, a figure that underlines the low-cost potential of any deal for Ajax’s development set-up. The rumour, dated 16 June 2026, lists the probability of a move only as “?”, and there is currently no publicly available end date on his Union Touarga contract, leaving open the possibility that he could move on as a free agent if his deal is close to expiry or remains unsigned.
The 1.80m defender, who wears No 52 for the Botola Pro Inwi side, is listed as a left-back but is comfortable across the flank, with both feet registered as preferred. He represents Morocco at club level with Union Touarga Sportif and has been emerging as one of the more notable young full-backs in the Moroccan top flight.
Detailed recent match data for Zahouani – including opponent, date, scoreline and individual performance – has not been published in the provided records, but his growing profile and €1.00m valuation suggest regular involvement in the Botola and steady development in domestic competition.
A move to Ajax U21 would place Zahouani in one of Europe’s most established talent pathways, with the Amsterdam club renowned for elevating young defenders into first-team and international contention. If this transfer materialises, it could prove a pivotal step in shaping his career trajectory and reputation beyond Morocco, potentially turning a promising domestic full-back into a fixture on the European stage.
