Moroccan left-back Youssef Belammari of Al Ahly is being linked with a move to Ligue 1 side Nice, with the 27-year-old defender emerging as a potential option for the French club’s back line.
Belammari, who currently plays for Egyptian Premier League giants Al Ahly and wears the number 20 shirt, is valued at €1.20m on Transfermarkt, a figure seen as attractive for a European club looking to add depth at left-back. His contractual situation at Al Ahly is unclear, with no public expiry date listed, fuelling suggestions he could move on in the near future or even approach free‑agent status if his deal runs down.
The Rabat-born defender, standing at 1.83m and naturally left-footed, is listed primarily as a defender – left-back – but is regarded as a modern full-back capable of covering the flank. He represents Al Ahly FC at club level and holds Moroccan nationality.
Belammari’s name has surfaced in transfer speculation dated 19 June 2026, with the probability of the move currently marked as “?” – underlining that talks, if any, remain at an exploratory stage rather than an advanced negotiation. No fee has yet been reported beyond his market valuation.
Recent performances for Al Ahly in the Egyptian Premier League have kept the 20 September 1998-born defender on the radar of scouts, although detailed competitive statistics and match-by-match data have not been publicly outlined in the current report. There is no confirmed information on a specific recent fixture – including opponent, date, scoreline or individual performance – linked directly to this rumour.
Should a switch to Nice materialise, a move from Cairo to the French top flight would mark a significant step in Belammari’s career, offering him a higher-profile European platform to enhance his reputation and test his potential at Ligue 1 level.
