Nora Fatehi addresses ongoing dating speculation linking her with Moroccan football goalkeeper Yassine Bounou. In an appearance on The Kris Fade Show, Fatehi responds when asked about online buzz around the pair, saying, “Oh yeah. He is my friend,” and adding that they are “very good friends.” She also praises Bounou, calling him “an amazing person” and describing him as “the best goalkeeper in the world.” Her reactions during the interview—such as smiling and appearing embarrassed when hosts suggest the two could look like a couple—prompt further discussion online.

Both outlets note that the rumours have circulated for months, gaining attention after reports that Fatehi and Bounou were seen together in Casablanca’s Ain Diab area. Supporters have also pointed to perceived similarities between outfits in social media posts and what she reportedly wore during the outing. Fatehi indicates she has known Bounou for a long time but says they only reconnected a few months ago.

Neither Fatehi nor Bounou confirms a romantic relationship. Moroccan media has also reported unverified claims about Bounou’s personal life, including reports about his marital status, which remain unconfirmed publicly by him or his family.
