Early life


El Moutacim was born in Espoo, but moved to Ekenäs at the age of five.[3] He later joined the EIF youth system when he was seven.[3]


Club career


In 2017, El Moutacim spent time with both the under-17 squad and their reserve team, EIF Akademi.[4] After making nine appearances on the bench as an unused substitute for the first team between 2015 and 2017,[5] he signed his first professional contract with the club ahead of the 2018 Ykkönen season.[4][6] He made his debut on 6 March 2018 during their Finnish Cup group stage victory over Honka Akatemia at home, playing the full 90 minutes and keeping a clean sheet.[7] That year he appeared between the sticks in five league matches before becoming the full-time starter in 2019, playing in 26 of 27 games.[8]

He signed with Veikkausliiga club SJK in December 2019.[8][9] Two months later he made his club debut, playing the full 90 minutes of a 2–3 defeat to Lahti in the Finnish Cup group stage. However, the signing of Finland national team keeper Walter Viitala turned him into the third-stringer at the position.[10] He started the 2020 season with SJK Akatemia in Ykkönen, and in his first match with the reserves on 27 June he allowed three goals in a 0–3 defeat to his childhood team EIF.[11]

In 2021, he received another contract extension with EIF.[12][13]


Personal life


He is of Moroccan descent through his father.[14]
