Saibari was forced off in the 22nd minute of Morocco's World Cup round-of-16 clash against Canada on Saturday due to a hamstring injury.

Saibari had been one of the most in form players of the tournament, entering the match as Morocco's top scorer with three goals, including the winning penalty in the shootout win over the Netherlands. Soufiane Rahimi came on to replace him up front. Losing Saibari would be a significant blow for Morocco if they advance, given the role he has played in their run so far.
