Early years

Growing up in Vestegnen to Moroccan parents,[3] Bakiz played football as a youth for Brøndby IF, Holbæk B&I and HB Køge before making his breakthrough as part of FC Roskilde in 2018.[4][1]

Viborg

After having made 43 appearances for Roskilde, in which he scored 13 goals, Bakiz signed a three-year contract with Viborg FF in June 2020.[5] In his first season, he won the second-tier 1st Division with the club and secured promotion to the Danish Superliga.[6] He made 21 appearances and scored three goals.[2]

On 18 July 2021, Bakiz made his Superliga-debut in a 2–1 away win over Nordsjælland. Starting on the left wing, he scored the 1–1 equaliser in the 41st minute of the game,[7] before being substituted by Jeff Mensah in the 78th minute.[8]

AaB

On deadline day, 31 August 2022, Bakiz joined fellow league club AaB on a deal until June 2026.[9] He made his competitive debut for the club four days later, coming on as a substitute in the 74th minute for Allan Sousa in a 2–0 away win over Midtjylland.[10][11] On 14 October, he scored his first goals for AaB, a brace, which secured a 2–0 victory against Lyngby.[12] He scored another brace on 30 October against his former side Brøndby in AaB's 3–2 away loss.[13]
