Yacine Titraoui transfer saga

Entities: Yacine Titraoui · Hull City · RSC Charleroi · Olympiacos FC · Belgium

Overview

In late July 2026, Algerian midfielder Yacine Titraoui, a key player for Belgium’s Sporting Charleroi, turned down an €8 million move to Greek side Olympiakos, stating a preference for a top‑five European league or the English Championship. Welsh club Swansea City remained interested.

Two days later, French club RC Lens entered negotiations with Charleroi to secure Titraoui for their Champions League campaign, while English clubs Hull City and Brentford also expressed interest. The Greek offer and its €120,000‑per‑month salary were reiterated as rejected. Titraoui, listed in Algeria’s 2026 World Cup squad but unused, remained under contract until 2027, with Charleroi setting a €10 million minimum fee for any sale.
