Achraf Bencharki also known as the “Moroccan Dybala”

A mini-thread on one of the most underrated players in africa! Requested by @AFC__Zeyad

Achraf Bencharki is a modern deep lying forward who loves to be involved in the build up and possesses heaps of technical ability. He often drops back into midfield to receive the ball from his teammates and try and create chances.

Bencharki is versatile and can also play on the left as an inside forward cutting inside and trying to take shots and as a trequartista in behind the striker where he uses his technical ability and vision.

Achraf’s strengths are certainly his technical ability,speed and the calmness in 1V1’s in front of goal. He is also a kind of poacher always at the right place right time to score. All in all Achraf is quality and oozes class and is one of the best wingers on the continent.

Achraf has 14 and 9 in 38 Apps. for Zamalek SC. Unbelievable stats for a man who just joined the club last season. Achraf also certainly knows when to turn up for the big occasion here you can see his 2 goals scored in the CAF super cup against Tunisian rivals ES Tunis!

Now the comparable player’s part. For me Bencharki reminds me mostly of Dybala it was already in the title of this thread. i know But he has some abilities that i also see in Dybala. Ofc. Paulo plays AM/CF for Juve but can also play on both wings.

If i’d advice any club from Europe’s top 5 leagues to take a look at him i’d go for OGC Nice. The French outfit loves to scout in Africa a recent example is Hicham Boudaoui. The Algerian joined Les Aiglons in the summer of 2019 from Algerian outfit Paradou AC.

OGC Nice play in a 5-2-3 formation that would fit Bencharki perfectly because they do play with wingers and if they get Bencharki for example they can deploy him anywhere up top!
