Islam Slimani dismisses rumors of return to Algerian football
Algerian international and striker for Belgian club KV Mechelen, Islam Slimani, has decisively clarified his stance regarding a potential return to Algeria. As his contract with KV Mechelen comes to an end this summer, speculation has been rife about his next move.

The forward, affectionately known as ‘El Arabi’ to his fans, has been linked with a return to his former club, CR Belouizdad, sparking excitement among Algerian football enthusiasts. However, Slimani has put an end to these rumors.

French-Algerian journalist Nabil Djellit, who writes for the French sports daily L’Équipe, reached out to Slimani to get his take on the matter. Djellit shared Slimani’s response on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, where the veteran striker firmly denied any ongoing negotiations with Algerian clubs.

“I’ve heard news about negotiations with Algerian clubs, and this is absolutely unfounded,” Slimani stated.
