Remembering Abdelaziz Barrada: Former Morocco International Dies At 35

Former Morocco midfielder Abdelaziz Barrada has passed away at the age of 35, as announced by Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille, the two clubs he played for in France, on Thursday. "Rest in peace Abdelaziz," Marseille wrote in a tribute, while PSG expressed their "great sadness" over his death. Born in France, Barrada began his career at PSG before moving to Getafe in Spain. Following a brief stint at Al Jazira in Abu Dhabi, he returned to France with Marseille in 2014, but later moved back to the Gulf after two years.

He played 28 times for Morocco between 2012 and 2015, scoring four times. He also played at the 2012 Olympics in London, scoring in a 2-2 draw with Honduras.
