Qatari giants Al Sadd have announced the signing of young Moroccan defender Younes Hannache in the current transfer window.
The 21-year-old enterprising defender joins Al Sadd from fellow Qatar Stars League side Al Shamal until the end of the current football season.
The move forms part of Al Sadd’s wider strategy to add depth, youth, and quality to their squad as they push to remain competitive on all fronts during the remainder of the campaign.
At just 21 years old, Hannache is regarded as one of the most exciting young prospects in the league. He arrived at Al Shamal in the summer of 2023 after leaving French powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain, a background that has already given him valuable exposure to elite football environments at a young age.
Al Sadd’s decision to bring in Hannache on loan reflects the club’s confidence in his potential and their belief that he can make an immediate impact while also continuing his development alongside some of the most experienced players in Qatari football. The move offers the youngster a major opportunity to gain experience at one of the country’s most successful clubs, while Al Sadd benefit from his energy, versatility, and promise.
With this acquisition, Al Sadd signal their intent to strengthen key areas of the squad as they prepare for the challenges ahead, hoping Hannache’s arrival will add fresh impetus and provide additional options for the technical staff as the season reaches a crucial stage.
