Hampered by an injury picked up on international duty, the Algerian defender was back on the pitch, coming on late in the match. According to available reports, he immediately made an impact by providing an assist—a promising sign after a lengthy rehabilitation period.

Observers say Hadjam is now aiming for a steady return to top form to convince Vladimir Petkovic. The objective is clear: to reclaim his spot with Algeria ahead of upcoming international fixtures.
