Moroccan prodigy Rachad Fettal impresses at Real Madrid

Rachad Fettal joined Real Madrid this summer, and already, the Moroccan talent is winning everyone over.

The Moroccan U20 international is having a superb preseason under the guidance of Castilla coach Alvaro Arbeloa. Exceptionally strong with dazzling natural physical abilities, Rachad Fettal is a lethal finisher in the opposition box.

In his first two matches wearing his new kit, he netted three goals—a brace against Marbella (4-0), followed by another goal against Racing de Ferrol (2-1). These impressive first steps have naturally set the Madrid press abuzz.

"Fettal, Arbeloa's Gonzalo," headlines OKDiario, for example, adding that if the Moroccan keeps up this momentum, he could soon get opportunities with the first team. "Rachad is a sensation," declared AS after the match against Ferrol, while Marca described it as an "exhibition of his attacking prowess."
