Hichem Baccar, a talented left-back from US Monastir, has officially signed a four-year contract with Club Sportif Sfaxien. This transfer marks an important step for both the player and the club as they prepare for the upcoming season.
At just 23 years old, Baccar has already made a name for himself in Tunisian football, impressing with his performances at US Monastir.
His move to CS Sfaxien is seen as a strategic addition to the Sfaxian club, which is looking to strengthen its squad under the leadership of newly appointed head coach Alexandre Dos Santos.
The Portuguese manager will be leading CS Sfaxien into the new season, and Baccar’s inclusion in the team is expected to bolster the club’s defensive capabilities.
The acquisition of Baccar is part of a broader strategy by CS Sfaxien to enhance their roster during this summer’s transfer window.
Tunisian clubs have been particularly active in the market, and CS Sfaxien’s move to secure Baccar’s services demonstrates their ambition to remain competitive in the league.
A ceremony has been scheduled to formally introduce Baccar, along with the other new signings and the technical staff, to the fans.
The event, set to take place at 16:00 GMT, will serve as a platform for the club to showcase its preparations for the forthcoming season.
The ceremony will also be followed by a friendly match against Sudanese side Al-Hilal, starting at 17:00 GMT, giving fans a first look at their team in action under the new management.
Baccar’s signing is expected to add depth to the squad, particularly in the defensive line, where his pace and defensive skills will be crucial.
Known for his solid defensive play and ability to support the attack, Baccar brings a dynamic presence to the left flank, something that CS Sfaxien has been looking to reinforce.
This move also represents a significant opportunity for Baccar to further his career at one of Tunisia’s most prestigious clubs.
CS Sfaxien, with its rich history and strong following, provides a platform for Baccar to develop his skills and potentially attract attention on a larger stage.
As the new season approaches, CS Sfaxien fans will be eager to see how Baccar and the other new recruits will fit into the team’s strategy.
With Alexandre Dos Santos at the helm, the club is clearly aiming to build a squad capable of competing at the highest levels of Tunisian football.
The coming weeks will be crucial for Baccar as he integrates into his new team and adapts to the expectations that come with playing for a club like CS Sfaxien.
However, with his proven track record at US Monastir, Baccar is well-positioned to make a significant impact at his new club.
