Karim Aribi signed in Nîmes, saw and left without having left an inexhaustible memory. The 27-year-old Algerian striker who arrived at the Crocs in October 2020 has already packed up. His next destination? Tunisia, a country and a championship that he knows well.
It’s folded. Karim Aribi will not follow up with a second season with Olympic Nimes. And it is undoubtedly so much the better so. The Algerian striker and his legal counsel have finally reached an agreement in principle on the departure of the former striker from Etoile du Sahel. Not at all obvious just a few days ago.
And for good reason, the relationship between the striker and his club has been a little strained, according to his relatives, lately. There was even talk of the start of an internal showdown, the player having insisted on obtaining an exit voucher to then join the Zamalek. In principle, Nîmes was not against the departure of the slender attacker, but not without a counterpart.
EST or “the hope” of a new beginning
Finally, the situation has since eased and the player finally obtained this Monday an exit voucher, but to “return” to Tunisia. Indeed, the native of Reghaia, in the eastern suburbs of Algiers, agreed with theHope of Tunis. He should arrive in the Tunisian capital in the coming days to sign his contract. The club Sang et Or would have spent 400,000 euros to buy back his contract.
So after a season in French Ligue 1, 14 matches, 0 goals and 0 assist, Karim Aribi leaves France to return to conquered territory. Certainly theIS will open up other horizons for him. Like for example playing the African Champions League. This is to say that he will not have lost anything in the end. Especially since Nîmes has come down from a level after a season to be forgotten. Good luck !
