Algeria-France left-back Jaouen Hadjam is being linked with a move from Swiss champions Young Boys to Serie A side Como, with the 23-year-old defender’s future increasingly under scrutiny.
Transfermarkt data lists Hadjam, who was born in Paris on 26 March 2003 and stands at 1.85m, as having a market value of €7.00m, and Italian reports suggest Como are monitoring his situation closely as they plan for the new campaign. The probability of a deal remains unclear, marked only as “?” on the rumours tracker, underlining that talks are at a very early stage and far from a completed transfer.
Hadjam, a left-footed defender who wears the No 3 shirt at Young Boys, is noted for operating primarily at left-back but with the athletic profile to fit Serie A’s increasingly demanding full-back roles. His current contract terms in Bern are not publicly listed, and with no expiry date disclosed, speculation persists that Young Boys could be vulnerable to a well-structured offer – or that the player could look to run down his deal and explore a free agent exit further down the line.
The dual-nationality defender, who is eligible for both Algeria and France, has been building his reputation in the Swiss Super League after earlier spells in France, and his valuation reflects a steady rise in status. Young Boys have regularly used him in domestic and European competition, where his height and left-footed balance have made him an asset in both phases.
Como, recently strengthening to establish themselves in Serie A, are believed to see Hadjam as a medium-term option rather than a short-term stop-gap, with the potential fee likely to sit close to his €7.00m valuation if negotiations advance.
Should the move materialise, a step into Italy’s top flight could prove decisive in shaping Hadjam’s next career phase, offering a higher-profile platform to enhance his reputation and test his potential at a more demanding tactical level.
