This is a complete List of Algerian football players in foreign leagues , i.e. association football players who have played in foreign leagues.
For most of the twentieth century, most Algeria internationals played in the native Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1 ; however, the national team has included some players based abroad from the beginning. While some in the 1960s and 1970s played for Algerian clubs, for example Hacène Lalmas and Mokhtar Khalem at CR Belcourt , others played in France, such as Sadek Boukhalfa with Nantes or Mustapha Zitouni with AS Monaco . Seven players of the squad for the 1982 FIFA World Cup came from a foreign club: Abdelmajid Bourebbou (Stade Lavallois ), Mustapha Dahleb (Paris SG ), Djamel Tlemcani (Stade de Reims ), Djamel Zidane (KV Kortrijk ), Karim Maroc (FC Tours ), Faouzi Mansouri (Montpellier HSC ) and Nourredine Kourichi (Girondins Bordeaux ). By the time of the 1986 World Cup that number had increased to 11 (50% of the squad), and at the 2010 and 2014 tournaments almost all were playing abroad (there were three and two home-based players respectively in the 23-man squads).

Soukhane – Bouricha – Oudjani – Boubekeur Crouching Mazouz – Kerroum – Benfadah – Bouchouk – A. Soukhane – Kermali – Mekhloufi – Oualiken .
A Large number of Algerian players have played in Europe as especially in France, the former colonial ruler of Algeria. The first Algerian player in Europe and first North African to play in France was Ali Benouna who joined Sète in 1930.[ 1] [ 2] He is the first Algerian player to win a European title, having won the French league and Coupe de France of the 1933–34 season with Sète. Benouna paved the way for more Algerians to soon taste the success of the French championship. This was done by Abdelkader Ben Bouali in the colors of Olympique de Marseille in the 1936–37 season , then Mohamed Firoud and Abdelaziz Ben Tifour on two consecutive occasions with Nice in 1950–51 and 1951–52 , in addition to Rachid Mekhloufi in 1956–57 with Saint Etienne and Mohamed Maouche in the next season with Stade de Reims ; all these titles came in the colonial era. As for the first player to win a title outside France, Mekhloufi holds that accolade for winning the Swiss League in 1962 .
In relation to statistics, the most prominent of these are Rachid Mekhloufi , star of AS Saint-Étienne who scored 150 goals and won the league title four times.[ 3] [ 4] There is also Mustapha Dahleb , former star for Paris Saint-Germain where he achieved two Coupe de France victories and is one of the most popular players in the history of the club (310 matches and 98 goals in 10 seasons).[ 5] Rabah Madjer was perhaps the best Algerian player to turn professional in Europe; he claimed ten trophies with FC Porto : three League, two Cup and two Super Cup on the domestic level and two continental titles on the level, including the European Cup in 1987[ 6] becoming the first Algerian and an African player to achieve this feat, and the Intercontinental Cup in Japan against Peñarol from Uruguay in which he scored the winning goal.[ 7] [ 8] In the 1970s and 1980s, Algerian players were generally not allowed to play professionally until they were over 28 years old which deprived many of the stars of the Algerian team at the time of a top-level career, especially after the 1982 FIFA World Cup , including Mehdi Cerbah , Hocine Yahi , Chaabane Merzekane , Fodil Megharia , Hacène Lalmas , Mahmoud Guendouz , Ali Bencheikh , Ali Fergani , Lakhdar Belloumi , Djamel Menad , Tedj Bensaoula and Omar Betrouni ; some of them did play professionally but did not achieve much success because of their advancing age. There were some players allowed to moved abroad even though they had not reached the age of 28: Djamel Zidane , Rabah Madjer and Salah Assad .
Several other players have achieved prominent titles: Rafik Djebbour won eight titles, four League and 4 in the cu, followed by El Arbi Hillel Soudani with 7 titles including three league and three cup, then Madjid Bougherra who won six trophies with Glasgow Rangers . Ahmed Reda Madouni was the first Algerian Bundesliga champion in the colours of Borussia Dortmund in the 2001–02 season (subsequently his career involved a strange fluctuation). in Eastern Europe, Selim Bouadla was crowned Hungarian league winner with Debrecen twice in the 2011–12 and 2013–14 season, noting that La Liga and Serie A has not tasted the taste of any Algerian player so far and the nearest thing was the Runner-up in Serie A by Djamel Mesbah in 2012 and Faouzi Ghoulam in 2016 . The English Premier League , was won by Riyad Mahrez with Leicester City . the 2012–13 season is considered the best for Algerian players, where they won 12 titles including three league, seven cups, three Super Cup and one league cup achieved by seven players are Djebbour , Soudani , Abdoun , Ghoulam , Rani , Sayoud and Benzia , In 2018–19 , Riyad Mahrez achieved the English treble with Manchester City as the first Algerian to achieve this achievement.[ 9] In the 2017–18 season, 161 Algerian players (including those of the diaspora who represent the national team) featured across all the leagues in Europe, and were present in 31 of the 55 leagues.
At the level of individual titles Mahrez won the 2016 PFA Players' Player of the Year award .[ 10] He was the first African to earn the accolade.[ 11] There is also Ali Benarbia achieved the best player award in the French league with Girondins de Bordeaux .

Due to Algeria's historic ties with France , there have been a number of Algerian players playing professionally in the French leagues, while the France national team has included players of Algerian heritage, most notably Zinedine Zidane , Karim Benzema and Samir Nasri .[ 18]
Zinedine Yazid Zidane (Arabic : زين الدين يزيد زيدان ) was born on 23 June 1972 in La Castellane , Marseille , in Southern France . Zidane is of Algerian Kabyle descent.[ 19] [ 20] His parents, Smaïl and Malika, emigrated to Paris from the village of Aguemoune in the Berber-speaking region of Kabylie in northern Algeria in 1953 before the start of the Algerian War . The family, which had settled in the city's tough northern districts of Barbès and Saint-Denis , found little work in the region
Karim Benzema was born in the city of Lyon , France, to French nationals of Algerian descent.[ 21] [ 22] As a practicing Muslim , he observes fasting during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan .[ 23] His grandfather, Da Lakehal Benzema, lived in the village of Tigzirt, located in the northern town of Beni Djellil in Algeria before migrating to Lyon, where he eventually settled in the 1950s.[ 24] Benzema's father, Hafid, was born in Tigzirt, while his mother, Wahida Djebbara, was born and raised in Lyon; her family originated from Oran . Benzema is the third youngest in the family and grew up with eight other siblings in Bron , an eastern suburb of Lyon.[ 24] His younger brothers Gressy and Sabri are also footballers.[ 25] The former currently plies his trade at the amateur level with Vaulx-le-Velin in the Division d'Honneur, the sixth division of French football, while the latter plays in the youth academy of a club in the family's hometown of Bron.[ 26] [ 27]
Samir Nasri (Arabic : سمير نصري ) was born in Septèmes-les-Vallons , a northern suburb of Marseille , to French nationals of Algerian descent.[ 28] [ 29] His mother, Ouassila Ben Saïd, and father, Abdelhafid Nasri, were both born in France; his father being born and raised in Marseille, while his mother being from nearby Salon-de-Provence .[ 29] [ 30] Nasri's grandparents emigrated to France from Algeria.[ 31] His mother is a housewife and his father previously worked as a bus driver before becoming his son's personal manager. At the start of his football career, Nasri initially played under his mother's surname, Ben Saïd, before switching to Nasri, his father's surname, following his selection to the France under-16 team .[ 32] He is the eldest of four children and is a non-practising Muslim.[ 33]
Nabil Fekir Having earned one cap at under-21 level for his native France, Fekir had been named in his ancestral Algeria 's squad for friendlies against Oman and Qatar in March 2015. However, he withdrew to take part in the French squad for friendlies against Brazil and Denmark .[ 34] He made his debut on 26 March against the former at the Stade de France , replacing Antoine Griezmann for the final 16 minutes of a 1–3 defeat.[ 35] He scored his first goal on 7 June, concluding a 3–4 home friendly defeat to Belgium .[ 36] On 4 September, in a 1–0 away friendly win over Portugal , he ruptured three ligaments in his right knee, putting him out for an estimated six months.[ 37]

He stated his desire was to play with the senior Algeria national team.[ 43] Subsequently, he received Qatari citizenship in order to assist in his club's foreign player quota. Despite his call up to Algeria's olympic team, he was called up to the Qatar B team on November 13, 2013, by compatriot Djamel Belmadi .[ 44] When questioned about Khoukhi's call-up to the squad, Belmadi claimed that Khoukhi was naturalized prior to his call-up in order for his team, Al Arabi, to overcome the foreign player quota.[ 45] Belmadi stated he was surprised when the QFA revealed Khoukhi was eligible to be called up to the Qatar national team.

In March 2023, Aouar switched his international allegiance from his birth country of France to the country of his parents, Algeria. In an interview with the Algerian Football Federation , he said, "the president held out his hand to me and it seemed like it was just meant to be. I had a second chance and I jumped on it."
