Azarkan was sent on a one-season loan to Excelsior on 9 August 2021.[5] On 5 July 2022, following Excelsior's promotion to the Eredivisie, his loan was renewed for the 2022–23 season.[6]

On 15 June 2023, it was announced that Azarkan signed with Eredivisie side FC Utrecht on a five-year deal for approximately €750.000.[7]

In March 2023, Azarkan accepted a call-up to the Morocco under-23 team, for the friendlies against the youth teams of Togo, Ivory Coast, and Uzbekistan.[9] He made no appearances due to an injury sustained shortly before the friendlies.[10]
