Kuala Lumpur: Lekhwiya’s Youssef El Arabi has been named the Toyota Player of the Week for the opening round of the 2017 AFC Champions League after impressing in his team’s 3-0 win against Al Jazira that kicked-off their Group B campaign.
The Moroccan hitman, who has averaged more than a goal a game in the Qatari league since joining Lekhwiya in July 2016, netted a brace against the Emirati visitors at Doha’s Abdullah Bin Khalifa Stadium on Monday.
El Arabi’s (pictured below, right) first came inside 10 minutes after heading in Youssef Msakni’s cross from the right from six yards, before Msakni deservedly doubled the Qatari side’s lead with 10 minutes remaining.
