Club career

On 1 February 2021, Zaroury joined Belgian First Division A side Charleroi on a two-and-a-half-year deal, returning on loan to Lommel until the end of the season.[3]

Burnley

[edit]

On 30 August 2022, Zaroury signed for EFL Championship club Burnley for an undisclosed fee on a four-year deal. He quickly became a fan favourite due to his skilful style, and soon had his own chant to the tune of Heartbeat.[4] He scored his first goal for Burnley in a 4–0 win against Swansea City on 15 October 2022.[5] Zaroury scored the second and third goals as Burnley beat Bournemouth in the third round of the FA Cup in January 2023.[6] On 11 August 2023, Zaroury received a red card against Manchester City in the first Premier League game of his career.[7]

Hull City (loan)

[edit]

On 1 February 2024, Zaroury moved on loan to Hull City for the remainder of the 2023–24 season.[8] He made his debut for the club on 3 February in the home 1–0 win against Millwall. After five minutes, his right-footed shot hit the bar, with Jaden Philogene on hand to push home the rebound.[9] On 20 February, Zaroury scored his first goal for Hull, as a part of their 2–1 away win against Southampton.[10] On 21 May 2024, Burnley announced the player would be returning once the loan ended.[11]

Lens

[edit]

On 22 August 2024, Zaroury signed for Ligue 1 club Lens on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[12][13]

International career

[edit]

Born in Belgium, Zaroury is Moroccan by descent.[14] He is a former youth international for Belgium, having played with them up to the Belgium U21s. On 16 November 2022, Zaroury was officially invited to join the Moroccan national team, during the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar,[15][16] in which he replaced Amine Harit, who suffered an injury one week before the World Cup started.[17][18][19] On 17 November, he made his international debut in a friendly match against Georgia.[20]
