The influential midfielder has been in excellent form this season, scoring 15 goals to boost Rangers' promotion push. And the 21-year-old was rewarded with the Championship Player of the Year trophy at Sunday's Football League awards.
Speaking to the Times, the Moroccan said: "I've been here only a year, it has been so quick and I am very happy. I have found a home and a family. Warnock's wife has looked after me and his kids have been like family to me.
"I cannot describe our relationship. Sometimes I think God has brought this guy to me, I am a very difficult guy to control but Neil does it. It is special between me and him, he changed my life. He tells me to just go out onto the pitch and enjoy it."
