The Africa Cup of Nations being held in Morocco has drawn not only fans and media attention but also player agents and club scouts from Europe and the Arab world, who are attending matches to assess talent on display.
Sources familiar with the matter, cited by Hesport, said numerous intermediaries and recruiters have positioned themselves in several host cities to monitor games and identify players for upcoming transfer windows. Performances recorded since the start of the tournament have increased interest in several players, including from teams not considered early favorites.
Scouts are focusing in particular on young internationals competing in their first major continental tournament. Their tactical discipline, physical intensity and on field maturity have drawn attention from clubs in both mid tier leagues and top divisions.
The Africa Cup of Nations serves as a showcase for African football, while Morocco’s infrastructure and organization support scouting and professional opportunities worldwide.
