Les Sables Vendée Football have completed the signing of Franco-Moroccan winger Soufian Awragh from Riviera FC on a free transfer, in a move that takes the 20‑year‑old from National 3 – Group H to National 3 – Group B. The deal, registered as a standard free transfer, begins on 2026-02-04 and currently has no listed contract expiry date.
Awragh joins Les Sables VF after a brief spell at Riviera FC, where he arrived as a free agent earlier in the same season. The switch keeps him in French football but places him in a different National 3 group, with Les Sables VF competing in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine section of the fifth tier. There is no transfer fee attached to the move and no official market value recorded for the player in the latest data.
Primarily deployed as a left winger, Awragh adds attacking depth on the flank for Les Sables VF, operating on his natural side but favouring his right foot. Born in Nice and holding both French and Moroccan nationality, he fits the profile of a modern wide forward: comfortable in advanced attacking roles and able to cut inside from the left. His main registered position is “Attack – Left Winger,” and there is no indication in the data of him being used regularly in other roles.
The move to Les Sables VF continues a career path that has so far remained within the Monaco–France axis. Awragh progressed through the AS Monaco youth system, moving from AS Monaco Youth to AS Monaco U19, and later being promoted to AS Monaco U21. After leaving Monaco’s U21 set-up, he spent a short period without a club before signing for Riviera FC, and now steps into a new chapter on the Atlantic coast with Les Sables VF.
Awragh’s previous clubs have seen him compete in youth and reserve structures rather than senior top-flight football, but the transition to National 3 represents a clear senior pathway. With Riviera FC competing in National 3 – Group H and Les Sables VF in National 3 – Group B, the winger has already been exposed to the demands of France’s highly regionalised fifth tier. The current data does not list individual appearances, goals, or assists for the 2025–26 season, nor does it provide specific recent match performances, so his statistical output at Riviera FC and earlier sides cannot be confirmed.
What is clear from the transfer history is that Awragh’s career has accelerated quickly over the last few seasons: a step up from youth to U19, a further promotion to U21 level at Monaco, followed by entry into senior regional competition and now a lateral but potentially strategic move within National 3. With no transfer fee and no declared market value, Les Sables VF assume minimal financial risk while acquiring a young attacker with professional academy schooling and dual-nationality appeal.
For Awragh, the move offers the chance to establish himself as a regular senior player, gain consistent minutes in National 3 – Group B and convert his youth pedigree into tangible end product at senior level. If he capitalises on this opportunity, this free transfer to Les Sables VF could become the platform that defines the next phase of his career.
