Club career

Abdeldjelil was born in Algeria, and moved to France at the age of 6. He began playing football with local clubs Belligny and FC Villefranche[3] before moving to semi-professional teams in France and Algeria.[4]

On 8 January 2019, Abdeldjelil signed a professional contract with Red Star F.C in the French Ligue 2, after beginning the season as the top scorer in the Championnat National with SO Cholet.[5] He made his professional debut with Red Star in a 1–0 Ligue 2 win over RC Lens on 14 January 2019 scoring the only and game-winning goal.[6]

In the summer of 2019, Abdeldjelil signed for neighbouring Ligue 2 club Paris FC after Red Star were relegated at the end of the 2018–19 Ligue 2 season.[7] With no goals in 14 appearances, he left the club and returned to Cholet in January 2020.[8]

In June 2020, Abdeldjelil was recruited by former US Orléans sporting director Anthar Yahia, to play for USM Alger in his country of birth.[9]

On 31 January 2021, Abdeljelil signed for French Championnat National club US Boulogne on a contract until the end of the season, having terminated his contract with USM Alger.[10] He was credited by some sources as scoring a hattrick in his first appearance for the club, in the clubs eighth-round Coupe de France game on 16 February 2021, although some sources at the time gave the third goal as an own goal.[11][12][13]
