Algerian club Paradou AC has decided to keep Adel Boulbina, despite strong interest from Al Ahly and Zamalek.
Paradou’s official spokesperson, Mourad Bounafouf, clarified the club’s stance to Algerian outlet Echorouk, stating: “Adil Boulbina will not leave during the current winter transfer window. He will complete the season with Paradou, and then move to Europe.”
Boulbina, who is currently the top scorer in the Algerian league, has a contract with Paradou until the summer of 2026. His performances this season have caught the attention of not just Al Ahly and Zamalek, but it is also reported that Ajax Amsterdam, Celtic FC and Sporting Lisbon are paying attention to Boulbina’s development, where club officials are said to have shown interest in the player.
Previous rumors revealed that an agent had approached Zamalek about signing Boulbina, but negotiations stalled after Paradou set a €2 million price tag for the 21-year-old winger. Zamalek reportedly deemed the valuation excessive, complicating any potential deal.
Boulbina has been in outstanding form this season, scoring 11 goals and providing two assists for Paradou.
