Tunisian right winger Iyed Belwafi is being linked with a move from CS Sfaxien to German side VfL Bochum, with the 23-year-old reportedly a target for the 2. Bundesliga club.
Belwafi, born in Mezzouna on 23 May 2003, is valued at around €400,000 and plays predominantly as an attacking right winger. Data compiled on 24 June 2026 places the probability of a transfer to Bochum at 21%, with the move currently at the rumour stage rather than an advanced negotiation.
The CS Sfaxien No 11, who stands at 1.79m and is right-footed, has developed in Tunisia’s Ligue 1 and is regarded as one of the club’s more promising wide options. He is listed as having Tunisia as his sole nationality and has been used in an attacking role on the flank, where his pace and direct play have drawn attention outside North Africa.
Belwafi’s contractual situation at Sfaxien remains unclear, with no confirmed expiry date published. That uncertainty has fuelled suggestions that he could become a free agent in the near future, a scenario that would significantly reduce any financial barrier for Bochum or other interested clubs.
His most recent campaign in Tunisia’s top flight has kept him on the radar of scouts, with his performances contributing to Sfaxien’s attacking threat from wide areas. Specific recent match data highlight him as a regular presence on the right wing, though detailed goal and assist figures have not been disclosed in the latest snapshot.
Bochum, currently competing in Germany’s 2. Bundesliga, are understood to be exploring cost-effective wide options, and a €400k-rated winger from North Africa would fit that profile if a fee is required.
Should the move materialise, a switch from CS Sfaxien to Bochum would mark Belwafi’s first venture into European football and could prove a key step in shaping his reputation beyond Tunisia and elevating his long-term career prospects.
