Unrelated but on reflecting at the end of the season. We never went wrong with signing Moroccan players. They are ranked 14th in FIFA. But their players are clearly at a better level.
We had 100% success signing them. Noah, Boumous, El Khayati, Jahouh, Ajaraie, Hamza, Bemmamer. Bemmamer is the only signing I think we could have had a better one perhaps. But they all seem to be one of the most committed group. I think in terms of weather wise we have similar weather so they hit the ground running from day 1. They seem to be the most successful group in terms of adapting quickly. I hope more ISL clubs can scout from here. I see a lot more talented players than the above group in their domestic leagues and Europe.

Morocco isn't better than a rank 14 team. Rank 14 is a high level already.
Moroccan players adapt better also due to similarity in socio economic conditions and culture.
