Arsenal tracking Hull City winger Bachir Belloumi as potential transfer target

Arsenal are monitoring Hull City winger Bachir Belloumi, with the club understood to be attracted by the Algeria international’s potential and his ability to adapt to English football.

According to Oussama Benamara, the Gunners are looking for a talented player capable of taking the next step in his career and establishing himself in the Premier League. Belloumi’s performances for Hull City have reportedly put him on Arsenal’s radar.

Hull City could be willing to consider a transfer if the 24-year-old makes it clear that he wants to leave. The potential fee is thought to be between 28.5 and 40 million euros.

Arsenal would hope to negotiate a reasonable price, similar to the deal that brought Leandro Trossard from Brighton in January 2023 for about 25 million pounds. However, there has been no formal approach or official request for information from Arsenal at this stage, meaning the interest remains preliminary.

Belloumi is under contract with Hull City until 2029. Transfermarkt estimates the Algeria winger’s current market value at 18 million euros, below the potential fee being discussed for a move.

A transfer to Arsenal would represent a significant stage in Belloumi’s career, although his future will depend on whether the London club’s interest develops and on the player’s own intentions.
