Internationals

The Moroccan international came on to City’s radar during the 1998 World Cup in France. Whilst not of the same class as Mustapha Hadji he was an accomplished midfielder with a vicious shot and boundless energy. Gordon Strachan signed him from Porto in 1999 and he had an excellent first season as City earned the nickname ‘The Entertainers’ and only missed games because of the African Nations Cup. The following season without McAllister and Keane a lot rested on Youssef’s shoulders and as the team struggled his form suffered. After relegation he played regularly for two seasons before being released in 2003 to allow him to move to Qatar where he played for three years with Al-Sadd & Al-Wakra. He was recalled to the Moroccan squad for the 2006 African Nations Cup but retired from international football soon after with 73 caps to his name. Later Youssef had trials with Hibernian and Swedish club Hammarby IF and did train with City at Ryton again.
