AFRICA CUP 2017 - Morocco - SQUAD - Striker Aziz Bouhaddouz into final squad

AFRICA CUP 2017 Aziz Bouhaddouz

 

Striker Aziz Bouhaddouz has been named in Morocco's final 23-man squad for the Africa Cup of Nations as a late replacement.

His inclusion comes after injuries to Younes Belhanda and Oussama Tannane.

Belhanda broke his toe last month playing for Nice while Tannane suffered a thigh muscle injury training with the squad in Abu Dhabi last week.

The 29-year-old Bouhaddouz has won two caps and plays for German second division club St Pauli.

Morocco, who won the Nations Cup in 1976, play in Group C at the finals in Gabon, starting against the Democratic Republic of Congo in Oyem on 16 January.

The tournament runs from 14 January to 5 February.
