Algeria-France left-back Jaouen Hadjam of Swiss side Young Boys is being linked with a summer move to Championship club Hull City, according to transfer speculation emerging from Switzerland.
The 23-year-old defender, who is valued at €7.00m on Transfermarkt, is reportedly on Hull’s radar as they assess options at left-back ahead of the new campaign. The rumour, logged on 28 June 2026, lists the probability of a deal as unclear (“?”), and there is currently no indication of an agreed fee or advanced negotiations.
Hadjam, born in Paris on 26 March 2003 and standing at 1.85m, is a naturally left-footed full-back and wears the No 3 shirt for Young Boys. His contract details with the Swiss Super League club are not publicly specified, and with no formal expiry date recorded, there is already talk in some quarters that his future status could become significant if he were to approach free-agent territory without an extension.
The defender has dual nationality, holding both Algerian and French citizenship, and is listed primarily as a defender at left-back. He joined Young Boys with a view to developing in European competition, and his market value of €7.00m reflects his profile as a young, physically imposing full-back with potential resale value.
Recent data sources do not provide a detailed breakdown of his latest appearances, goal contributions or a specific recent match – including opponents, dates, scorelines and individual performance metrics – and there is no official confirmation yet from either club about concrete talks.
For Hull City, a move for Hadjam would fit the Championship trend of targeting emerging full-backs from continental leagues, while for the player it could offer a first step into English football. If the transfer were to materialise, it could mark a pivotal stage in Hadjam’s career, shaping his reputation as he seeks to translate promise in Switzerland into a higher-profile platform in England.
