Moroccan international Youssef El-Nesyri, the striker for Spain’s Sevilla, is eyeing the opportunity to break the record held by Moroccan legend Ahmed Faras in the Africa Cup of Nations.
Ahmed Faras stands atop the list of all-time goal-scorers for the Moroccan national team in the Africa Cup of Nations, having netted 6 goals in the 1972 and 1976 editions.
Youssef El-Nesyri currently holds the second position with 4 goals scored in the 2017, 2019, and 2021 editions of the tournament.
El-Nesyri aspires to surpass Ahmed Faras during the current edition, aiming to become the all-time leading scorer for the Atlas Lions in the Africa Cup of Nations.
The talented striker has been in excellent form and will seek to make his mark in the tournament, adding to his goal tally and etching his name in the history books.
As Morocco competes in the prestigious continental tournament, all eyes will be on El-Nesyri to see if he can surpass the iconic record set by Ahmed Faras more than four decades ago.
The pursuit of such a record adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the African football community, eager to witness history in the making as Youssef El-Nesyri vies for goal-scoring glory.
