Billal Brahimi, a new Aiglon

OGC Nice and SCO Angers have agreed on the transfer of Billal Brahimi (21). 

After looking to bolster their attacking threat on the flanks, Le Gym has brought in the left-footed winger, who can play on either side (and also through the middle). The Villepinte-born forward, who is packed with potential, had been part of the Angers squad since the start of the season, featuring in eight L1 games (1 assist). He was involved when Nice beat Angers 2-1 on 31 October. 

Powerful, technical and with an ability to get forward, Brahimi was at the Middlesbrough youth academy before returning to France at Reims in 2019. He had a breakthrough season on loan at Le Mans last season, netting 12 goals and registering 10 assists in 34 matches in France's third tier. 

Brahimi will now wear the red-and-black shirt under Christophe Galtier. OGC Nice would like to wish him a very warm welcome!
