Creates two chances in draw
El Khannouss registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Brazil.
Analysis: El Khannouss didn't do much in the final meters, aside from creating two chances. Morocco have plenty of options in the final third, so it wouldn't be surprising if the Stuttgart winger isn't in the XI when the Atlas Lions take on Scotland on June 19.
Locked-in starter for Morocco?
El Khannouss figures to hold a starting role with Morocco in the 2026 FIFA World Cup after an impressive 2025/26 season with Stuttgart in the Bundesliga.
Analysis: El Khannouss spent the 2025/26 season on loan at Stuttgart from Leicester City, but the 22-year-old impressed with nine goals and seven assists across 41 appearances for the German club across all competitions. That led Stuttgart to sign him on a permanent basis, and it should also translate into a prominent role in Morocco's midfield at the World Cup. Even though the African giants have lots of creative options, led by Brahim Diaz and Ismael Saibari, El Khannouss' ability to fill several roles in midfield should grant him regular minutes for one of the potential darkhorses in the tournament.
