Belloumi to Arsenal: talk of a 2027 move, no bid in sight
The situation
Arsenal's interest in Mohamed Belloumi is still nothing more than a narrative being passed around, not a move taking shape. The latest addition is a former Algeria manager, Rabah Saadane, suggesting the Hull City winger will leave "soon", while an earlier report framed the player as open to a switch to Arsenal, pointedly next year rather than this winter. Nobody has reported a bid, an approach or any contact between the clubs. Hull signed Belloumi from Farense in August 2024, and nothing here suggests they have been asked to sell.
The reporting
Sport Witness was carrying it by 3 November, relaying a claim sourced to Maghreb-Foot about Belloumi not refusing an Arsenal offer. FootballTransfers has since repeated that line twice, first on the player's supposed willingness to join, then via Saadane's comments. That is three outlets, but one voice: a single claim recycled, with no trusted reporter anywhere near it.
The outlook
Call this a longshot for January. The reports themselves point to a 2027 move, not a January one, which is exactly why the next window looks unlikely to produce anything. Even the most positive framing is an opinion and a player's supposed openness, not a bid. Until a club actually enquires, this stays speculation dressed up as momentum.
The context
Belloumi is valued at €24m, having cost Hull €6m from Farense in 2024. There is no reported Arsenal figure to weigh that against yet.
What happens next
What would actually move this is Arsenal making contact, a transfer committee drawing up an offer, or Hull confirming interest has been received. None of that has happened. Until it does, this remains a story built on comment, not conduct.
