A remarkable achievement for Zizou's son, who is steadily making his mark with Real Betis.

At just 19 years old, the French-Algerian talent was developed at Real Madrid before joining the Andalusian club in 2024.

He has 16 appearances for the France U20 team, with a single goal to his name scored against Saudi Arabia in 2025.

His market value is estimated at €100,000 according to the specialist website Transfermarkt.
