Alaa Bellaarouch

Alaa Bellaarouch of SC Braga was born in Casablanca, Morocco on 1 February 2002 (age 24).

Alaa Bellaarouch (born 1 February 2002, age 24) is a Moroccan goalkeeper with SC Braga, where he wears squad number 36. His current market value is around £340,000, according to Transfermarkt.

His senior career to this point is still largely shaped by Strasbourg. The 2023–24 season gave him his main run of league football, with 15 appearances in Ligue 1. For a goalkeeper still early in his career, that spell remains the substance of the record rather than a footnote.

Bellaarouch is now at Braga, though the 2025–26 season has not brought league football so far. He has made one Europa League qualifying appearance for the Portuguese club, leaving his Braga record at one senior outing across all competitions.

At this stage, Bellaarouch’s profile is straightforward: a Moroccan goalkeeper whose first meaningful senior exposure came at Strasbourg, now trying to build on that at Braga.

Alaa Bellaarouch has not yet made a Liga Portugal appearance for SC Braga in 2025-2026, with his only recorded outing coming in Europa League qualifying. That points to a squad role rather than an established first-team position at this stage, with no league starts, no cards and no domestic goalkeeping sample to assess.

Bellaarouch’s senior record remains light in the supplied data. The 24-year-old Moroccan goalkeeper moved from Académie Mohammed VI to Strasbourg, had a loan spell at Stade Briochin, and is now at SC Braga, but the recorded league appearance totals for the listed seasons show no established run of senior league football.

The transfer history suggests a development-path goalkeeper rather than a proven starter. Strasbourg initially picked him up from Académie Mohammed VI on an undisclosed deal, sent him to Stade Briochin on loan, then sold him to SC Braga for €270k in July 2025 – a modest fee that fits a low-risk squad addition.
