Club career

edit

Born in Montreuil, Seine-Saint-Denis, France,[1] Ghedjemis has Algerian origins.[2][3]

Having started playing at Chelle, Seine-et-Marne,[4] Ghedjemis is a youth product of Troyes and Le Havre.[2]

After playing with Le Havre's reserve team in National 3, he started playing with the first teams of Évreux and Vannes, both times in National 2.[1][2][4][5]

In the summer 2023, after scoring 6 goals and delivering 6 assists in half a season for Vannes, he was part of the revelations of the 2022–23 National 2, but was a free agent after his club suffered relegation to the fifth tier.[6] Despite being reportedly followed by several French professional leagues clubs,[7] he joined third division side FC Rouen.[2][8][9][10]

In January 2024, he was transferred to Frosinone in Serie A for 300 000 euros, plus 10% of a potential future sale, making it already the record transfer for his French National club.[2][5][11] He signed a 2-years contract with the Italian side.[1]

Style of play

edit

This left-footed winger is able to play on both wings, with a preference for the right side on his inverted foot.[3]

He was compared to his fellow Le Havre graduate Riyad Mahrez.[12]
