Sofiane Farid is embarking on a new adventure. After three seasons with AS Vita Club (DR Congo), the Burkinabè has officially signed a three-year deal with Sudanese powerhouse Al-Hilal Omdurman, one of the most decorated teams in the country.

In recent seasons, Sofiane Farid has established himself as one of the most promising goalkeepers on the African continent. He was a key figure for AS Vita during his time in Congo, with his consistency and standout performances earning him continental recognition and solidifying his place with the Burkina Faso national team, the Stallions.

With this transfer, Sofiane Farid joins another giant of African football. Multiple-time Sudanese champions, Al-Hilal have set their sights on reclaiming their status as a continental powerhouse. The club is a regular fixture in African competitions and continues to attract top talent from West Africa. The Burkinabè arrives to take the starting goalkeeper spot and bring stability to a team seeking defensive solidity. His CAF Champions League experience and maturity will be invaluable assets for the Sudanese club.
