Sami Tlemcani ( Arabic: سامي التلمساني; born 21 July 2004) is a professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Greek Super League 2 club AEK Athens B. Born in France, he represented Morocco at youth international level before committing to represent Algeria in February 2023.

Club career

Early life

Born in Saint-Maurice, Val-de-Marne, France to an Algerian father and Moroccan mother, Tlemcani played for Créteil-Lusitanos before joining Paris FC. [2] He spent two years with Paris FC, training with the first team at only 15 years old. [3]

Chelsea

In October 2020, he joined English Premier League side Chelsea. [3] [4]

In February 2022, Tlemcani was loaned to Isthmian League side Merstham on a short-term deal. [5] [6] He went on to make five appearances in the league. [7]

He extended his deal with Chelsea in August 2022, signing until 2025. [8] On 1 July 2023, Tlemcani departed Chelsea by mutual consent. [9]

AEK Athens

On 27 July 2023, Tlemcani joined Greek Super League 2 club AEK Athens B. [10]

International career

Tlemcani is eligible to represent France through birth, and both Algeria and Morocco through his parents. He was called up to the French under-16 team in November 2019. [11]

Ahead of the 2021 Africa U-17 Cup of Nations, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in host country Morocco, Tlemcani pledged his international future to Morocco, stating on his Instagram page that he had decided to represent them instead of Algeria. [12] This choice was strengthened further when, in September 2021, he received a surprise call up to the Morocco senior set up ahead of 2022 World Cup qualification games. [13] [14] [15]

Despite Tlemcani initially expressing his pride at representing Morocco, his father said in an interview in September 2022 that he had a desire to represent Algeria at international level, but had yet to hear from the Algerian Football Federation. [16] [17] He has since gone on to represent Morocco at under-20 level. [18]

In February 2023, Tlemcani chose to represent Algeria. [19]
