On Sunday, the newspaper reassured supporters by stating, "The news is positive after the injury he sustained," elaborating that "the preliminary examinations reveal that the player does not suffer from any serious injuries: no concussion or fracture."

Bentayeb's Impressive Track Record
Vitor Bruno, the Portuguese coach of Anderlecht, praised Bentayeb for his instinctive ability inside the penalty area, highlighting the 24-year-old's talent for positioning himself effectively before scoring opportunities. Bentayeb joined Anderlecht during the summer transfer window from the French club Troyes, where he had an outstanding season, finishing as the top scorer in the French second division with 20 goals. His transfer was valued at approximately 4.5 million euros.
In May, Bentayeb made his debut for Morocco, impressively scoring a goal and providing two assists in a match against Burundi. His inclusion in the Moroccan squad is a testament to his rising profile in football, and he is among the 29 players selected by national coach Mohamed Ouahbi for the training camp, which begins on Monday.
