Raja Casablanca defender Youssef Belammari is being linked with a move to Egyptian giants Ahly SC, with the probability of a deal currently rated at 77% according to transfer data.
The 27-year-old left-back, who plays in Morocco’s top flight Botola Pro Inwi, is the subject of mounting speculation over a potential switch to the Egyptian Premier League, where Ahly are monitoring defensive reinforcements. Data from Transfermarkt lists his current market value at €1.50m, a figure that would make him a comparatively affordable option for the Cairo club if negotiations progress.
Belammari is contracted to Raja Club Athletic but no expiry date is recorded in the available data, leaving open the prospect that he could move for a fee or, depending on his contractual situation, even approach free-agent status in the near future. For now, the links remain in the realm of rumour rather than a completed agreement, with no formal announcement from either club.
Born in Rabat on 20 September 1998, the 1.83m defender is a left-footed specialist whose main position is left-back. He came through at FUS Rabat Espoirs before stepping up to FUS Rabat’s first team in 2017, and later joined Raja in July 2023. His rise has been mirrored by a steady climb in his valuation, which moved from €200,000 as a 19-year-old at FUS Rabat to over €1m after his switch to Raja, peaking at €1.70m in late 2024 before settling at €1.50m by November 2025.
Having spent his entire senior career in Morocco, a transfer to Ahly would represent Belammari’s first move abroad and a step into one of Africa’s most scrutinised football environments. If the proposed deal does materialise, it could mark a pivotal stage in his career and provide a new platform to enhance his reputation on the continental stage.
