Het besluit volgt nadat de 21-jarige verdediger zijn eerste oproep kreeg voor het Nederlands elftal onder 21, een stap die zijn keuze om het land van zijn geboorte te vertegenwoordigen bevestigt.<\/p>\n<p>Oufkir, die uitkomt voor SC Heerenveen, was een uitblinker bij Jong Oranje in hun recente 3-0 overwinning op Georgi\u00eb. Hij speelde de volledige 90 minuten in de EK-kwalificatiewedstrijd en hielp zijn ploeg aan een clean sheet in een dominante prestatie.<\/p>\n<p>In een verhelderende verklaring bevestigde Oufkir dat de Koninklijke Marokkaanse Voetbalfederatie (FRMF) nooit contact heeft opgenomen voor een oproep voor het seniorenelftal. \u201cMarokko heeft nooit gebeld,\u201d zei de verdediger om de situatie te verduidelijken. \u201cIk werd alleen benaderd voor het elftal onder 23. Ik ben Nederlands, ik ben hier geboren en ik heb altijd voor de Nederlandse jeugdelftallen gespeeld. Mijn keuze was snel gemaakt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zijn integratie in de Nederlandse opzet is naadloos verlopen. Bondscoach Ronald Koeman heeft hem al opgemerkt en nodigde Oufkir afgelopen oktober uit om met het seniorenelftal mee te trainen. De jonge verdediger omschreef die ervaring als \u201cheel bijzonder,\u201d en benadrukte het positieve pad waarop zijn carri\u00e8re nu bij de KNVB is.<\/p>\n<p>Nu zijn internationale verbintenis is beklonken, kan Oufkir zich volledig richten op zijn ontwikkeling. Zijn duidelijke toewijding en sterke prestaties voor Oranje onder 21 markeren een belangrijke stap in zijn carri\u00e8re, waarmee hij zijn plek binnen het Nederlandse voetbalsysteem verstevigt.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ayoub Oufkir has officially committed his international future to the Netherlands, ending speculation about a potential switch to Morocco.
