Youssef En-Nesyri (born 1 June 1997) is a Moroccan professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Málaga CF as a striker.
Club career
After starting his youth career at Académie Mohammed VI de football, En-Nesyri joined Málaga CF for a fee of €125,000 in 2015.[1] Initially assigned to the Juvenil squad, he made his senior debut for the reserves on 16 April 2016, scoring the last in a 3–1 Tercera División away win against Guadix CF.[2] He netted back-to-back goals in the following three matches against CD Huétor Tájar,[3] River Melilla CF[4] and FC Vilafranca[5] and went on to become an integral player for the reserve side which narrowly missed promotion to Segunda Division B.[6]
On 8 July 2016, En-Nesyri was included in first team manager Juande Ramos' pre-season squad,[7] and scored a double in a 4–0 friendly win against Algeciras CF eight days later.[8]
On 23 August 2016, after scoring six goals during the pre-season, En-Nesyri agreed to a contract extension until 2020.[9] Three days later he made his professional – and La Liga – debut, coming on as a late substitute for Keko in a 2–2 away draw against RCD Espanyol.[10]
En-Nesyri scored his first professional goal on 21 September 2016, netting the winner in a 2–1 home victory against SD Eibar, after coming on as a substitute for Charles.[11]
International career
After representing Morocco at under-20 level, En-Nesyri was called up to the full squad by manager Hervé Renard on 22 August 2016, for friendlies against Albania and São Tomé and Príncipe.[12] He made his debut against the former nine days later, starting in a 0–0 draw at the Loro Boriçi Stadium in Shkodër.
