Club career
editBorn in Casablanca, Fettah joined Raja Casablanca at age 10 after being discovered by Fethi Jamal.[2] Fettah made his debut for the Raja first team in 2004. He made his breakthrough in 2006 under head coach Oscar Fulloné,[2] and grew into a starter for the side which won the Botola in 2009.[3] He decided to leave the club in December 2010 to join city rivals Wydad Casablanca, after spats with management.[2] There, he took part in two CAF Champions League campaigns and reached the final in 2011, which was lost to Espérance Tunis.[4][5] As of 2014, he was still with Wydad Casablanca.[6][7]
After a short return to Raja, a stint with FAR Rabat, a loan to Emirati club Ittihad Kalba,[8] as well as a short stay at Widad Témara in 2018, Fettah began playing for fifth-tier club Bab Berred in 2020.[9]
International career
editFettah was first called up for the Morocco national team in 2011 to play two qualifying matches for 2012 Africa Cup of Nations.[2] He qualified with Morocco, but was eventually not called up for the main tournament.[citation needed]
In January 2014, the Moroccan national football team coach Hassan Benabicha invited Said to be a part of the squad for the 2014 African Nations Championship.[6] He helped the team to top group B after they drew with Burkina Faso and Zimbabwe, and defeated Uganda.[10][11] The team was eliminated from the competition at the quarter-final stage after losing to Nigeria.[12][13]
