Morocco’s 2026 World Cup run is great so far. Goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, or “Bono”, once again carries the responsibility of leading the Atlas Lions from the back as they take on Canada in the Round of 16 game.
Bounou has become one of Morocco’s most trusted footballers thanks to his heroics on the international stage. But the Al Hilal goalkeeper prefers to keep much of his life away from the spotlight. At the center of that private world is his wife, Imane Khallad, and their young son Isaac.
Who Is Yassine Bounou’s Wife Imane Khallad?
Imane Khallad is a Moroccan fashion enthusiast, influencer and social media personality who has occasionally attracted attention through her support of the national team and her husband throughout his career. Despite being married to one of Morocco’s biggest sporting stars, she has largely chosen to stay out of the public eye.
The couple have been together for several years and are reported to have married in 2016. Unlike many high-profile football families, Bounou and Imane have rarely shared details about their relationship publicly, helping them maintain a level of privacy despite the goalkeeper’s growing fame.
Imane has nevertheless become a familiar figure to Moroccan fans, regularly appearing in the stands to cheer on her husband during major international tournaments.
How Many Children Do Yassine Bounou and Imane Khallad Have?
Bounou and Imane have one child together, a son named Isaac.
The couple welcomed Isaac in 2020 and have occasionally shared glimpses of family life, though they remain careful about protecting their son’s privacy. Reports have consistently described Isaac as the center of their family life, with both parents keeping him largely away from media attention.
Throughout his rise from Casablanca to Spain, Saudi Arabia and the world stage, Bounou has built a reputation as one of football’s most humble figures.
The Morocco international was born in Canada before moving back to Morocco as a child, where he developed into one of the country’s greatest goalkeepers.
