Tunisia right winger Iyed Belwafi of CS Sfaxien is being linked with a summer move to German side VfL Bochum, with the 23-year-old reportedly viewed as a low-cost wide option for the 2. Bundesliga club.
Transfermarkt data lists Belwafi’s current market value at €400k and assigns an 18% probability to the proposed transfer, underlining that talks are at an early, speculative stage. With no public record of a fixed contract expiry date at CS Sfaxien, there remains the possibility that any unresolved deal could eventually see the attacker run down his terms and test the market as a potential free agent.
Born on 23 May 2003 in Mezzouna, Belwafi has established himself as a right-sided forward for CS Sfaxien in Tunisia’s Ligue 1, wearing the No 11 shirt and operating primarily as an attacking right winger. Standing at 1.79m and preferring his right foot, he has been used predominantly in advanced wide roles, offering pace and direct dribbling from the flank.
The Tunisian, who holds only his home nationality, has built his profile in domestic competition rather than in European leagues, making any switch to Bochum a first venture into German football. The 2. Bundesliga club, recently reshaping their squad, are understood to be scanning for affordable attacking depth, with Belwafi’s valuation seen as accessible compared with typical European market prices.
Recent match data highlights his continued involvement for CS Sfaxien in Ligue 1 in 2025‑26, though detailed statistics such as goals and assists have not been formally updated in the latest dataset.
If a move to Bochum does materialise, it would represent a significant step in Belwafi’s career, offering a platform in one of Europe’s most competitive second tiers and a chance to enhance his reputation beyond Tunisia’s borders.
