Sofiane Boufal family, wife, children, parents, siblings

Football player Sofiane Boufal, who was born on September 17, 1993, competes for Ligue 1 team Angers as a winger or attacking midfielder.

He represents Morocco’s national team and was born in France.

On March 26, 2016, Boufal started for the Moroccan first squad in a 1-0 win against Cape Verde in an African Cup of Nations qualifying match.

Due to an injury, Boufal withdrew from Morocco’s team for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations. Additionally, Hervé Renard shockingly left him off the final roster for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Morocco’s representative at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations was Boufal. He was one of two Moroccan players who did not score in their Round of 16 loss to Benin on penalties, 4-1.

He was included in Morocco’s 23-man roster for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar on November 10, 2022.

Wife and Children

He likes to keep his personal life out of the public eye so there’s not much known about his relationship and paternity statuses.

Parents and Siblings

There are no facts about his parents’ identities.

He grew up in Angers, a town southwest of Paris, the French capital, with his twin sister Aicha and their older brother Abdeltif.
