Saudi coach Renal was the head coach of the Moroccan national team. The 18-year-old Ashraf was recruited into the national team for the first time by Renal. In an interview with Moroccan media, Renal bluntly stated that in his mind, Ashraf is the winner of this year's Golden Globes.

Why did you dare to give Ashraf, who was only 18 years old, a chance?

"Being able to stand out from Real Madrid's youth training itself shows that he is talented. The then technical director of Morocco, Large, also highly recommended him to me many times and praised him."

From the beginning of his career to the present, how do you evaluate his growth in the club and the national team?

"His progress is phenomenal. From Dortmund to Inter Milan, to Paris Saint-Germain, every club he joins is a giant, which is enough to prove Ashraf's strength."

This season, Ashraf contributed his dominant performance in Paris. Can he compete for this year's Golden Globes?

"He is one of the best players in the world today. To me, he is the Golden Globe winner this year. Ashraf has performed so well and has played a key role in most of the games."

Is Ashraf writing the history of African football like legends like Etoo, Drogba, and George Wea?

"Ashraf is now the best player on the continent. Besides, considering that he is still young, he has not stopped moving forward yet."
