After World Cup successes in Qatar: Bayern star with a big gesture

World Cup 2022

Even though Morocco lost 2-0 to France in the semi-finals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the Moroccan national team achieved something historic. For the first time a national team from Africa was in a World Cup semi-final. In the game for third place, coach Walid Regragui’s team met Croatia (1:2). In the end, Morocco came fourth from the World Cup in Qatar.

Morocco caused quite a stir with victories against Belgium, Spain and Portugal. Bayern professional Noussair Mazraoui also shone in the team’s successes. The right-back not only makes an impression on the pitch. He also draws attention to himself off the pitch.

Noussair Mazraoui gives his World Cup bounty to charity

Because Noussair Mazraoui did not want to use his World Cup bonus for himself. According to a report by the “Evening News” the 25-year-old donated his entire World Cup bonus. It is said to be a sum of around 280,000 euros. The money will go to a charity in his home country.

He’s not the only one who decided to donate his World Cup prize. Hakim Ziyech, midfielder at Chelsea FC and team-mate of Mazraoui in the Moroccan national team, also passed on his bonus. The approximately 325,000 euros are said to have gone to employees from the national team and to aid organizations in Morocco.

Another club is said to be interested in Bayern star Mazraoui

After many years at Ajax Amsterdam, where Mazraoui has been on the pitch since he was young, he moved to Bayern Munich in the summer of 2022 and played his way into the starting XI there. He signed with Munich until 2026.

But another club is said to have already expressed an interest in him. The “Gazzetta dello Sport” reports that Inter Milan should have him on the list. They are said to be eyeing him as a possible replacement for the coveted Denzel Dumfries, who has been rumored to be a move for some time.
