In its statement, USMA confirmed the player's administrative registration:

“USM Alger announces the signing of international player Achraf Abada to the team, on a contract extending over three and a half seasons, arriving from AS Chlef.”

The club also specified that the player has been “officially registered with the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).”

This new addition comes as USMA looks to strengthen a defense that still has room for improvement. The club also expressed its gratitude to ASO Chlef for its “spirit of cooperation and coordination” and its “professionalism” which helped finalize the transfer.
