Transfer window: everyone wants the next Islam Slimani

Algerian striker Nadhir Benbouali is making waves with his Hungarian club, Győri ETO FC.

His outstanding performances in the 2025-2026 season have not gone unnoticed, as several Arab and European clubs are now showing strong interest in his profile during this winter transfer window.

According to the latest reports, the Chlef native is being targeted by Swedish side Malmö and Belgian club Anderlecht. Previously, Espérance de Tunis and Egypt's Al Ahly had tried, unsuccessfully, to sign him.

At 25 years old, Nadhir Benbouali is a classic centre-forward, often compared to Islam Slimani, Algeria's all-time top scorer.

In 26 matches played this season, the former Paradou academy product has netted 14 goals and provided 3 assists.

His market value is currently estimated at €900,000, but it's expected to soar in the next update on the specialist site Transfermarkt.
