Will leave soon – Coach excited about Arsenal interest in PL player, says it's 'significant'

Arsenal are interested in signing Hull City winger Mohamed Belloumi in January, though he is currently sidelined with a cruciate ligament injury.

Arsenal have shown interest in Hull City winger Mohamed Belloumi ahead of the January transfer window, according to reports relayed by Sport Witness. The 24-year-old Algeria international has impressed in the Premier League this season with three goals and two assists in 10 matches, though he was left out of Hull's recent 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Belloumi is currently recovering from a cruciate ligament injury suffered in November 2024 that will keep him sidelined for the rest of the 2024/25 season. Former Algeria manager Rabah Saâdane, who has worked with the player, believes the interest from a top club like Arsenal is significant and expects Belloumi to leave Hull soon, though he cautioned that mid-season moves are challenging due to adaptation and preseason demands.

The winger, who joined Hull from Portuguese side Farense in 2023, played a key role in the club's promotion to the Premier League last season. Despite Saâdane's preference for stability, Belloumi is likely to accept an offer from Arsenal if one materialises in January.
