Algeria’s Himed Abdelli set to leave Angers as summer exit looms

Algeria’s Himed Abdelli set to leave Angers as summer exit looms

Algerian international Himed Abdelli is poised to leave SCO Angers at the end of the season, with his departure now seen as a near-certainty following a key agreement struck last summer.

The 25-year-old midfielder, who has been instrumental in Angers’ successful bid to remain in Ligue 1, is expected to activate a release clause that was promised by club management ahead of the current campaign.

In return for staying an additional season, the clause allows Abdelli to explore opportunities elsewhere—a condition both sides are now prepared to honour.

Abdelli’s consistent performances throughout the season have been a driving force behind Angers’ survival, which is now mathematically secured with one match left to play.

His form has not only earned praise from the club’s coaching staff but also admiration from supporters who recognise his significant contribution in a season that demanded resilience and leadership.

Having joined Angers from Le Havre in the summer of 2022, Abdelli quickly emerged as a central figure in the team’s midfield. Over the course of three seasons, he has made 105 appearances in all competitions, registering 18 goals and contributing several assists.

His technical intelligence, work rate, and ability to dictate tempo in midfield have made him a standout figure in Ligue 1.

With just one year remaining on his current contract, all indications suggest the time is right for both player and club to part ways. For Angers, the move provides an opportunity to secure a transfer fee rather than risk losing the player for free next summer.

For Abdelli, it opens the door to a more ambitious challenge at a higher level, in line with his growing reputation within French football and on the international stage.

The midfielder’s exit has not yet been officially confirmed, but behind the scenes, preparations are well underway. Sources close to the club have indicated that several sides are monitoring his situation, with Olympique de Marseille reportedly among the interested parties.

The prospect of a move to a club with European ambitions would represent a significant step forward for Abdelli, whose career trajectory continues to trend upward.

Despite the impending exit, the mood around Abdelli’s departure is one of mutual respect. Both the player and the club appear aligned in their understanding that this summer marks a natural juncture for a new chapter.

His contributions to Angers’ recent stability are likely to ensure he leaves on good terms, with his professionalism and impact fully acknowledged.

As Angers prepare for their final match of the season, attention will quietly begin to shift toward life after Abdelli. Meanwhile, for the midfielder, the summer window could bring the move that defines the next phase of a career already marked by steady growth and ambition.

His next destination remains to be confirmed, but what is certain is that Himed Abdelli will not be short of suitors when the transfer market opens.
