The 32-year-old midfielder brings a wealth of experience from top European leagues and the Moroccan national team, with his contract set to run until the end of the 2025-26 season, according to Moroccoworldnews.com.

Boufal began his professional career in France with Angers SCO, where his flair, close control and creativity quickly caught the eye. A subsequent move to Lille OSC further elevated his reputation, establishing him as one of Ligue 1's most exciting attacking players at the time.

His impressive displays earned him a transfer to Southampton in the English Premier League, where he featured between 2016 and 2020.

Boufal later enjoyed spells with Celta Vigo in Spain, returned to Angers, and went on to play for Al-Rayyan in Qatar before his most recent stint in Belgium with Union Saint-Gilloise.

On the international stage, Boufal has been a regular presence for Morocco, earning 46 caps to date. He played a pivotal role in the Atlas Lions' historic run at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, starting all seven matches as Morocco became the first African nation to reach the semi-finals.

His dribbling ability and vision made him one of the team's standout performers during the tournament.

Le Havre, currently battling to secure their Ligue 1 status, view Boufal as a significant addition to their attacking options. His technical quality, creativity and experience across France, England, Spain and Belgium offer valuable versatility in both midfield and wide areas.

French outlet L'Equipe reports that the deal runs until June 2026, underlining the club's belief in Boufal's ability to make a lasting impact.

With 99 Ligue 1 appearances already to his name, Boufal's move represents more than just a new chapter-it is a return to familiar territory for a player well-versed in the demands of French football.
