Moroccan football continues to make its mark on the global stage, and Abderrazak Hamdallah has added another remarkable achievement to his prolific career.

The forward, currently playing for Al-Taawoun, has secured a place among the most prolific hat-trick scorers of the 21st century, according to a ranking published by British sports outlet GiveMeSport and updated in October 2026.

With 23 hat-tricks to his name, the Moroccan international sits 12th worldwide, ahead of several internationally renowned forwards.

Hamdallah Ahead of Ibrahimović, Neymar and Harry Kane

The achievement becomes even more impressive when considering the names behind him on the list.

Hamdallah's 23 hat-tricks put him ahead of Swedish legend Zlatan Ibrahimović, who recorded 20, Brazilian superstar Neymar, with 21, and England captain Harry Kane, who has 22.

It is a notable milestone for the Moroccan striker, whose consistent ability to find the net has placed him alongside some of the most recognised attacking talents of his generation.

A Remarkable Scoring Record Across Continents

Hamdallah's place among the leading hat-trick scorers reflects a career built on goals across several leagues and countries.

He has enjoyed prolific spells in European, Arab and Asian football, but his time in Saudi Arabia has been particularly significant. Representing Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad and Al-Shabab, before joining Al-Taawoun, he repeatedly demonstrated his finishing ability and instinct inside the penalty area.

His goalscoring record has made him one of the most recognisable Moroccan forwards of his generation, while his latest recognition adds another chapter to an already remarkable career.

Another Milestone for Moroccan Football

For Moroccan supporters, this achievement is another reminder of the country's growing presence in international football.

To record 23 hat-tricks and finish ahead of players such as Ibrahimović, Neymar and Kane is a significant individual accomplishment.

Hamdallah's place on the list underlines the consistency and goalscoring instinct that have defined his career.

The numbers speak for themselves: 23 hat-tricks, a place among the world's most prolific scorers, and another Moroccan name making headlines on the global stage.
