Timeline
Merouane Zemmama, مروان زمامة, (born 7 October 1983) is a Moroccan football manager and a retired Moroccan professional footballer who used to play as an attacking midfielder.
Born in Salé, Zemmama started his professional career when he joined Raja Casablanca in 2001.
And the Moroccan Botola in 2001 and 2004, and also 2 Moroccan Cups in 2002 and 2005, and Arab Champions League 2006
He helped the club win the CAF Confederation Cup in 2003.
Zemmama represented Morocco at the 2004 Summer Olympics and was first capped at full international level in 2008.
Zemmama joined Hibernian under freedom of contract in August 2006.
A diminutive playmaker, Zemmama made his debut for Hibernian on 12 August 2006 in a 0–0 draw at Inverness.
Zemmama scored his first goal for Hibs in a 2–2 draw with Edinburgh derby rivals Hearts on 15 October 2006.
In August 2006 it was reported that Raja Casablanca were disputing the legality of Zemmama's transfer to Hibernian.
Zemmama was part of the team that won the 2007 Scottish League Cup Final and featured significantly in both the 2006–07 and 2007–08 seasons.
During the later stages of the 2007–08 season, Zemmama broke a bone in his foot after turning awkwardly during training.
This injury kept him out of the rest of the season and the start of the following season.
During early September 2008, Zemmama was transferred to Al-Shaab on a season-long loan deal due to personal issues.
His pregnant wife, Zineb, was unable to enter the UK because she was only 17 years old.
Zemmama requested to Hibs that he be transferred to a club where he could live with his wife.
The intention of the loan deal was that Zemmama's wife would be 18 years old by the time it expired, making her able to enter the UK.
However, after Zemmama moved to Al-Shaab, the Government increased the age at which brides could enter the UK to 21, throwing Zemmama's return to Hibernian into doubt.
Raja stated that the player had signed a contract with them until 2009, which would have precluded him from signing a contract with Hibernian.
Rod Petrie refuted the claim that Zemmama had a contract with Raja.
The Royal Moroccan Football Federation announced on 30 August that they had suspended the player pending an investigation into the transfer.
FIFA stated that the player could continue to be selected for Hibs during the investigation.
FIFA then stated that the main allegation – that the international transfer certificate had been forged – was a criminal matter.
FIFA closed their investigation, pending the outcome of enquiries by the Moroccan police.
Zemmama returned to Edinburgh for the start of the 2009–10 season, however, in the belief that his wife and young son would be allowed to live in Edinburgh.
After returning from the loan to Al-Shaab, Zemmama again became a "key influence" in the Hibs team.
He suffered injury problems during the 2009–10 season, however, and was ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering cruciate ligament damage during a match against Falkirk on 27 March.
That match had been his comeback from unrelated injuries that had prevented him from starting a game since 17 February.
Manager John Hughes admitted in August that he did not expect Zemmama to return before Christmas, as he had not yet commenced jogging exercises as part of his rehabilitation.
Zemmama, whose contract with Hibs was due to expire at the end of the 2010–11 season, returned to full training in December.
Zemmama signed for Middlesbrough on 31 January 2011.
In April 2012, Zemmama scored the winning goal in a match against Southampton, which kept Middlesbrough's chance of promotion alive.
