Marouf Mohammadi (Afghanistan)
Age: 19 Position: Wide Midfielder
Besides some quality foreign-born players, Afghanistan also have some good homegrown young talent and Mohammadi is one of the best.
The left midfielder plies his trade for Afghan club Toofan Harirood and was adjudged the best player in his very first Afghan Premier League season. He made his debut in the international friendly defeat to Tajikistan in June and scored his first goal for Afghanistan in the memorable 3-0 win over Pakistan.
Testimonial: Mohammadi is a very fast and intelligent player who can provide real quality from the left flank. The teenager may not start all the time but can be a great impact player from the bench just like the game against Pakistan – Footballnameh.blogspot.com
