Moustaganem's Taraji is nearing a strong double deal by signing the former international duo Raïs Wahab Mboulhi and Mehdi Zafane, as part of efforts to strengthen the team with experienced players who have high continental and international experience.

Raïs Mboulhi (39 years old) is considered one of the most prominent goalkeepers in the history of Algerian football, having won the Africa Cup of Nations 2019 with the "Greens" and received the award for the best goalkeeper in the tournament after conceding only two goals in 7 matches, one of which was a penalty. He also shone remarkably in the 2014 World Cup, especially in the historic match against Germany, and was also named the best goalkeeper in the Arab Cup 2021.

His career has included stints at several clubs such as Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia, Rennes in France, Antalya Spor in Turkey, Philadelphia Union in the USA, and Chabab Belouizdad, along with several other clubs in France, Saudi Arabia, and Algeria. His last experience was in the 2023/24 season with Chabab Belouizdad, where he participated in only 6 matches.

Mehdi Zafane (33 years old) also has an impressive international record, having won the Africa Cup in 2019 with the national team after stepping in as a starter to replace the injured Youcef Atal, and he was one of the influential players in the continental victory.

Zafane has strong professional experience, having played for clubs like Olympique Lyon, Rennes, and Clermont in the French league, with his last stint being with Clermont during the 2023/24 season.

If this deal is completed, it will be a significant boost for Moustaganem's Taraji, which aims to build a competitive team relying on experience and readiness in a season that seems promising.
