The announcement was made through Damac FC’s official Twitter account, with the club expressing gratitude to Zeghba for his contributions.

Before his stint at Damac FC, Zeghba had a successful career in Algeria, playing for four clubs, including Entente Sétif from 2017 to 2019.
His performances caught the attention of scouts in the Gulf region, leading to his move to Saudi Arabia.
At 33, Zeghba’s future remains open. While there is speculation that he might continue his career in the Gulf region, a return to the Algerian Ligue 1 is also a possibility.

For Zeghba, this departure opens the door to new possibilities, whether in Saudi Arabia, elsewhere in the Gulf, or back in his home country of Algeria.
Zeghba’s next move will be closely watched by those who have followed his career. His experience, both domestically and internationally, positions him well for future success, wherever he may choose to play.
As the transfer window progresses, the football community will be eager to see where this seasoned goalkeeper will land next.
In the meantime, Damac FC will look to the future as they search for a new goalkeeper to fill the void left by Zeghba’s departure.
The club’s gratitude towards Zeghba reflects the high regard in which he is held, and the impact he made during his four years with the Southern Knights will not be forgotten.
As Zeghba contemplates his next steps, one thing is certain: his career is far from over, and his next destination could well be another chapter of success and achievement.
