The Real Madrid transfer market is once again linked to Abdellah Ouazane, a 17-year-old midfielder who has just been called up for the first time by Morocco after his breakthrough with Ajax. The white club had already agreed on his signing in 2025, but the deal fell through after the player did not pass the medical examination.

Real Madrid had already sealed Ouazane's signing

The precedent is clear. In July 2025, Ouazane was set to join Real Madrid after completing his training at Ajax, but the medical check-up prevented the completion of the operation. The agreement included his arrival at Juvenil A, with a possible progression towards Castilla later on.

The situation changed completely after that episode. Ajax regained the player and ended up renewing his contract until June 2028, while Ouazane continued his development in Amsterdam. By April, he had played 25 matches with Jong Ajax before gradually moving up to the first team.

The player himself later explained that this experience forced him to understand that an operation can change within hours. His priority became competing for a place in Ajax's first team, where he started the 2026/27 season at 17 years old.

Abdellah Ouazane changes scenery with Ajax

Ouazane's evolution has altered his situation. In the current season, he has one goal and three assists with Ajax, as reported this week, while his coach Míchel Sánchez has mainly used him as a left winger despite the player identifying more with the attacking midfield role.

One of his standout moments came against Sion in the Conference League playoff. Ouazane played the full 90 minutes and provided two assists in Ajax's 5-3 victory, an performance that coincided with the presence of the Moroccan national team coach in the stands.

The market had already placed Ouazane on the radar of several top European clubs. In addition to Real Madrid, reports in August mentioned Barcelona among the clubs tracking his progress, although there is no record of a Barcelona offer for the player.

Morocco accelerates Ouazane's growth

The latest development came on September 17. Morocco included Ouazane in their senior squad for the matches against Gabon and Lesotho, as well as the friendly against Ghana. This is his first call-up to the senior team after representing the country at youth levels.

In August, the player confirmed his decision to play internationally for Morocco after also being part of the Netherlands' youth squads. In 2025, he was the U-17 Africa Cup champion with Morocco and was named the tournament's best player.

This call-up now increases the exposure of a player whose contract with Ajax expires in 2028 and whose market value is around 1.5 million euros, according to current estimates by Flashscore and Sofascore. There is no public release clause to set a price tag.

So far, Real Madrid has not confirmed a new negotiation for Abdellah Ouazane. The next step will be to see his continuity in Ajax's first team and his debut for Morocco during this break, two scenarios that could determine whether Real Madrid's interest will materialize into a concrete deal.
