Ruled out of World Cup Abde (knee) has been ruled out of the World Cup entirely and will be replaced in Morocco's squad by Amine Sbai, according to Hanif Ben Berkane of Foot Mercato.

Impact Abde's tournament is over after the moderate knee ligament sprain he suffered during Sunday's friendly against Norway proved too serious to recover from in time for any part of the competition. Morocco will now reorganize their attacking options without one of their key wide players, with Bilal El Khannouss expected to cover on the left flank as the Atlas Lions prepare for their World Cup opener against Brazil.

Impact Adbe was taken off the field at halftime Sunday after suffering an injury on the final play of the half, receiving a blow from his teammate in the knee region that would end his day. This is a concern for the team just a few days from the start of the World Cup, as the attacker is set to be a starter for their opener against Brazil. The hope will be that he only suffered a minor injury and was removed as a precaution, as his absence would force Azzedine Ounahi into the starting XI.

Impact Abde provided the assist on Antony's long-range strike and continued his strong form since returning from AFCON, with the winger contributing two goals and one assist across his last five appearances in all competitions. During that span, he has been a consistent attacking threat, attempting 18 shots and creating five chances for teammates.

FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Scores goal Thursday Abde (groin) scored one goal from six shots (one on goal) during Thursday's UEFA Europa League win over Feyenoord.

Impact Abde recovered quickly from a minor injury and continued a solid streak, recording at least five shots and a goal for the second straight game across all competitions. He should now remain a safe starter on the left wing as long as he avoids rotation in busy weeks. Therefore, Aitor Ruibal and Rodrigo Riquelme (groin) will see few minutes in attacking roles.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Back available Thursday Abde (groin) is an option for Thursday's clash against Feyenoord in the Europa League, coach Manuel Pellegrini said in the press conference, according to Zona Mixta.

Impact Abde suffered a minor adductor issue during the last game against Alaves but the forward could clear the issue since he is back available for Thursday's clash against Feyenoord in the Europa League. This is great news for Betis since he is an undisputed starter in the frontline and he should regain that role moving forward.

JANUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE

Scores before injury Abde (groin) scored one goal to go with five shots and four crosses in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Alaves before suffering a groin issue, coach Manuel Pellegrini said in a press co...

Impact Abde scored a consolation goal late in Sunday's defeat against Alaves and ended the game with an adductor issue. The forward will be tested on Monday to determine the extent of the issue and to see whether it is simply discomfort or an injury. If Abde were to miss some time, it would be a massive blow for Betis, since Aitor Ruibal (groin) is out and Rodrigo Riquelme (groin) is a doubt moving forward, which could result in Pablo Fornals playing on the left wing for some time.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Back with Betis Abde is back available moving forward for Betis after ending his international duty with Morocco, the club announced.

Impact Abde is already back available for Betis after his journey at the AFCON with Morocco. The forward was spotted in the plane ahead of Thursday's clash against PAOK in the Europa League. Abde has been a regular starter for Betis before his international duty and is expected to claim back that role now that he is an option again.

JANUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Will represent Morocco Abde has been called up by Morocco for the AFCON starting Dec. 21 and ending Jan. 18, according to Actu Foot Afrique.

Impact Abde was called by Morocco for the AFCON and will miss all the games until at least the clash against Oviedo on Jan. 11, although he could miss more games if Morocco perform well in the competition. The left winger has been a regular starter for Betis recently, therefore his absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Rodrigo Riquelme likely taking his spot in the frontline while he is out.

Scores in win Ez Abde scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-0 win versus Mallorca.

Impact The attacker didn't do much offensively but he has a key goal in the team's dominant effort on Sunday. Ez Abde will likely need more volume to have at scoring on Thursday, as Lyon has not allowed a goal yet in UEL play through three games.
