SC Farense (Portuguese D1) ended up letting Bachir Belloumi go to another club. The left-hander signed for 4 years with Hull City (Championship/England). To replace him, the Portuguese club turned to Mehdi Merghem (27 years old), a Franco-Algerian.
The latter, a member of theOF Guingampevolving to the second level in Franceshould commit in the next few hours. It should be noted that the transfer window will only close on September 2 au Portugal. And this still allows the feasibility of this transfer.
Important player of the EAG
You should know that the SC Farense had shown himself willing to give in Belloumi which had already been in demand since the opening of the summer market. The board was therefore already prepared for this eventuality and the management thinks it will find in Merghem a reliable alternative for his talented left-hander who left in England.
Last season, Merghem argued 37 matches for 5 goals and 1 assist with the Guingampais. He is versatile and can play on the left, right or in the axis behind the attackers. Finally, let us specify that his contract runs until June 2025. However, he should benefit from an exit voucher that will be paid by the SC Farense with the fallout from the sale of Belloumi.
