Discovery of D1 and the Champions League with ACCS 92 (2019–2021)

[edit]

After a season at MMF, he joined, along with Bilal Bakkali, ACCS FC[15], a club competing in the elite of French futsal.

Soufiane El Mesrar played his first match for his new team on 14 September 2019[16] against Toulouse Métropole during the first round of the D1. ACCS won the match (8-1) but later lost on a technicality due to an irregularity.[17]

The Moroccan winger scored a goal and provided two assists in a 9-1 win against Sporting Paris on 8 March 2020 during the 13th round of D1.[23]
