Born on May 6, 1999, in Casablanca, Morocco, to Moroccan parents (his father is from Casablanca and his mother from Rabat), Achraf Dari grew up in a family passionate about football. His father, a former player, was a significant influence on his early interest in the sport.

At the age of seven, Dari joined the Wydad AC academy, where he began his formal football education. His progress was swift, and he was promoted to the senior team of Wydad AC in 2017.

Dari’s performances with Wydad AC in the Moroccan Botola Pro and the CAF Champions League drew attention from European scouts. In 2022, he made a move to the French club Stade Brestois 29, where he continued to develop his game. Dari’s journey from Casablanca to Europe is a testament to his talent and determination.
