Youssef Belammari is being strongly linked with a move from Raja Casablanca to Egyptian giants Ahly SC, with the probability of a deal being reported at 90%.
The 27-year-old left-back, valued at €1.50m, is understood to be on Ahly’s radar as they look to strengthen the left side of their defence. Data from Transfermarkt lists the move as highly likely, although there is no agreement in place and no confirmation from either club. With no contract expiry date publicly recorded for Belammari at Raja, observers have also noted the possibility that his contractual situation could yet influence whether he moves for a fee or edges towards free-agent status in the near future.
Belammari, born in Rabat on 20 September 1998, has built his reputation in the Botola Pro Inwi, first with FUS Rabat and then Raja Casablanca. He progressed from FUS Rabat Espoirs to the senior side in 2017 before switching to Raja in 2023. Since then his market value has climbed steadily, peaking at €1.70m in late 2024 before settling at its current €1.50m assessment.
A 1.83m tall, left-footed defender, Belammari’s main position is at left-back, and he represents Raja Club Athletic domestically while holding Moroccan nationality. His rise in value from €200,000 in 2018 to seven figures by 2024 reflects his consistency in Morocco’s top flight and explains why Ahly, perennial contenders in the Egyptian Premier League and on the continent, are considering him as a viable option.
No specific match performances are cited in the latest data, but the trajectory of his career and valuation suggests a player entering his peak years. Should the move to Cairo materialise, it could mark a significant step in Belammari’s career, offering him a bigger regional stage and the opportunity to enhance both his reputation and long-term prospects.
