Anis Fatahine: Paris FC to extend contract of Algeria defender

French Ligue 1 club Paris FC are considering the option of extending the contract of Algeria youth international Anis Fatahine.

While Paris FC’s upcoming transfer window promises to be ambitious and active, they will also continue to promote their young players to bolster their squad.

According Le Parisien, the option on the one-year professional contract signed last year by Fatahine will be exercised with the 20-year-old left-back soon to sign a two-year extension.

Fatahine is an Algeria youth international

Having joined Paris FC at the tender age of 11, Fatahine will continue his development with his boyhood club if the agreement is finalized.

A key player for the reserve team, the defender made his first-team debut this season in the Round of 32 of the Coupe de France against Raon-l’Étape during a 3-0 win and was also in the squad against PSG on January 4th.

Although he previously played for the French U16 and U17 teams, he chose Algeria in 2021 where he played for the U18, U20 and U23 teams.

Paris FC currently sit in 12th on the French Ligue 1 table with 38 points from 21 matches.

With three games to wrap up the current campaign, Paris are safe from relegation and would want to strengthen the squad for the next campaign.
