Just a week after sealing his transfer from Paradou to Al Duhail, Algerian forward Adil Boulbina broke his silence for the first time on Algerian Radio, revealing the behind-the-scenes details of his switch to the Doha-based club. Last season's top scorer in the Algerian league (20 goals in 26 matches) explained the reasoning behind a career move that caught many by surprise.

Given his immense potential, many observers had expected him to make the jump to Europe. However, the 22-year-old made it clear this was not a hasty decision, but one made after careful consideration: "My transfer to Al Duhail came after tough negotiations and deep reflection. It wasn't a random choice, but the result of a thorough analysis of my options. I chose to join Al Duhail because it's a big club that always competes for top spots and titles."

Adil Boulbina also took the opportunity to confirm his pact with Djamel Belmadi, the former Algeria national team coach: "I'm going to deliver standout performances with Al Duhail under coach Djamel Belmadi's leadership, and this will be my gateway to Europe."
