At 29 years old, Ghilas is looking to reignite his career in the Belgian league after struggling to secure regular playing time with Reims this season, making just one appearance. He is eager to get back on the field to boost his chances of being selected for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
Reports from France Football suggested that the former AS Cannes player could sign a contract lasting one and a half years. However, recent discussions lean towards a six-month loan deal with an option for an additional year.
With previous stints at AS Cannes, Guimaraes, Celta Vigo, Hull City, Arles-Avignon, and Stade de Reims, the experienced striker brings a wealth of knowledge and aggressiveness to the Charleroi squad.
The deal for Ghilas is expected to be finalized in the coming hours and could serve as a potential replacement in the offensive department for Sporting Charleroi.
