Zinedine Ferhat, the talented 20-year-old attacking midfielder for USM Alger, is attracting attention from French clubs due to his impressive performances in the Algerian championship. Montpellier is particularly interested in him, with the club having already made an offer to USMA. Ferhat confirmed Montpellier’s interest, mentioning that his former coach Roland Courbis is leading the club. However, Ferhat remains focused on his current club’s objectives, particularly winning the championship title.
Despite the transfer speculation, Ferhat’s immediate goal is to secure a spot in the Algerian national team for the 2014 World Cup. He expressed his determination to make the final squad of 23 players selected by coach Vahid Halilhodzic. Ferhat mentioned that his father is handling the negotiations for his potential transfer abroad.
The vice-president of USMA, Rebbouh Haddad, confirmed that the club has received a concrete offer from Montpellier for Ferhat’s transfer. However, no decision has been made regarding the transfer at this time.
