Boudaoui extends contract with Nice until 2026, club sees him as key player for future

Nice Football Club has announced that it has extended the contract of midfielder Boudaoui until June 30, 2026.

The decision to extend his contract comes after the French club saw him as a key player for their future plans.

"Boudaoui is an important player for us and we're happy to have him on board for another three years," said Nice's sporting director, Jean-Michel Aulas.

"He brings a lot of experience to our team and he's been a valuable addition to our squad over the past few seasons."

The 27-year-old has made more than 150 appearances for Nice since joining from Toulouse in 2018, scoring 14 goals in all competitions.

He was also part of the team that reached the semi-finals of the Europa League last season, where they lost out to eventual champions Sevilla.

With the contract extension, Boudaoui will be hoping to continue his impressive form at the Parc des Princes this season and help Nice challenge for honours next year.
