French Media: Several Teams Continue to Monitor Ajax's 17-Year-Old Star Wazna, Including Real Madrid

ScoreFast365 reports on August 17 that Real Madrid is keeping a close eye on Ajax's 17-year-old midfielder Wazna. The Moroccan international has caught the attention of several top club scouts with his impressive performances at the start of the season.

Wazna was born in Amsterdam and holds dual nationality from the Netherlands and Morocco, ultimately choosing to represent Morocco, the homeland of his parents. He is capable of covering multiple areas in midfield, excelling as an attacking midfielder, central midfielder, and defensive midfielder. In the latter half of last season, he played for Ajax's U19 team and had reached an agreement to join Real Madrid, but the deal fell through due to a failed medical examination. In March 2025, he helped Morocco win the U17 Africa Cup and was named the tournament's best player, making him a regular on the radar of top European clubs.

This season, Wazna has accumulated 227 minutes of playing time with Ajax's first team, showcasing impressive performances. He scored the winning goal in a friendly against Burnley, assisted a teammate in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers, and made his official first-team debut on August 16, where he also scored his first goal. It is reported that Real Madrid's scouting department has placed Wazna on a long-term monitoring list, but there are currently no immediate plans to take action.
