FC Cincinnati announced the full acquisition of striker Ayoub Jabbari from French club Grenoble on Friday.
The 25-year-old Moroccan is signed until 2028 with an option for 2029.
Jabbari joined Cincinnati on loan in August and appeared in five MLS regular season games with one start.
“We are excited to bring Ayoub back in 2026,” said general manager Chris Albright. “He is a strong and dynamic striker, and his ability to stretch defenses and maintain play are important qualities for our squad. We look forward to his continued progression with the club next season.”
Before joining Grenoble in 2024, Jabbari played for Paris FC (2023-24) and Spanish Racing Santander (2022-23).
