Hicham Boudaoui has found a new home in Saudi Arabia. OGC Nice and Al-Ittihad have reached a complete agreement this Sunday for the transfer of the Algerian midfielder. The player, now set to join the Saudi club, is preparing to sign the documents within the coming hours with his new team.

A transfer completed in record time

The Boudaoui deal was wrapped up in record time. Both parties finalized negotiations this Sunday, ending any uncertainty surrounding the departure of the Algerian international midfielder. The player, whose technical profile and Ligue 1 experience were highly valued at Nice, now has the green light to officially join Al-Ittihad. The talks, conducted at a rapid pace, prevented any further delays in discussions.

An imminent signature

The 29-year-old midfielder only needs to finalize his commitment with the Saudi club. According to information gathered by *Onze Mondial*, the signing of the documents is expected to take place within the day, if it hasn’t already. Boudaoui, who has donned the Nice jersey 150 times since arriving in 2020, leaves behind a difficult season for the Côte d'Azur club, which has been relegated to Ligue 2. His departure aligns with Nice’s rebuilding plans, as the club will now have to do without a key player from its squad. Al-Ittihad, for its part, is strengthening its ranks with an experienced profile accustomed to European competition—a major asset for the rapidly expanding Saudi league. Details of the financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed at this stage. The Saudi club, known for its sporting ambitions and massive investments, may have offered an attractive package to lure the player and his former club. One thing is certain: the Algerian midfielder is about to embark on a new chapter in his career under the Saudi sun.
