A youth coach who lifted the FIFA U-20 World Cup with Morocco in 2025, he was handed the senior job just months before the tournament &mdash; and has taken the Atlas Lions all the way to the last 16. For the bigger picture, see our <a href=\"\/ca\/world-cup-2026\/\">World Cup 2026<\/a> hub.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Who is Mohamed Ouahbi?<\/h2>\n<p>Born in Brussels in 1976 to a Moroccan family, Ouahbi spent years in the Anderlecht academy, coaching age groups from the youngest juniors up to the under-21s. In 2022 he took charge of Morocco&#8217;s under-20 side, and it was there that he made his name.<\/p>\n\n<h2>The U-20 World Cup that changed everything<\/h2>\n<p>Ouahbi&#8217;s defining moment came in 2025, when he guided Morocco to the FIFA U-20 World Cup title, beating Argentina 2-0 in the final. It was a landmark triumph for Moroccan football and marked him out as one of the country&#8217;s brightest coaching talents.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Replacing Walid Regragui<\/h2>\n<p>When <strong>Walid Regragui<\/strong> &mdash; the man who led Morocco to a historic World Cup semi-final in 2022 and the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations title &mdash; resigned in March 2026, the federation turned to Ouahbi. Promoted from the under-20s just months before the finals, he inherited a golden generation and a weight of expectation.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Mohamed Ouahbi&#8217;s honours<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th style=\"text-align:left\">Team<\/th><th style=\"text-align:left\">Honours<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Morocco U-20<\/strong><\/td><td>FIFA U-20 World Cup (2025)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<p>That U-20 world title, sealed against Argentina, remains the standout entry on his CV &mdash; and he is now writing a new chapter with the senior side.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Morocco at the World Cup 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Ouahbi&#8217;s Morocco have been superb. They opened with a battling 1-1 draw against Brazil, before beating Scotland 1-0 and Haiti 4-2 to come through the group. In the Round of 32 they <a href=\"\/ca\/news\/netherlands-vs-morocco-player-ratings\/\">knocked out the Netherlands on penalties<\/a>, captain <a href=\"\/ca\/news\/achraf-hakimi-stats\/\">Achraf Hakimi<\/a> leading from the front, to reach the last 16.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Through to the last 16<\/h2>\n<p>Morocco&#8217;s reward for their shootout win over the Netherlands is a last-16 tie with co-hosts Canada. Ouahbi, so recently a youth coach, is now within touching distance of matching Regragui&#8217;s semi-final heroics of 2022.<p><em>19+ (18+ in AB\/MB\/QC). Please play responsibly.
