Abdelwaheb Sofiane Khedairia (Arabic: عبد الوهاب سفيان خذايرية; born 1 April 1989) is a footballer who plays for USM Khenchela.[2][3] Born in France, he represented Algeria at international level.
Career
[edit]Khedairia began his career playing for two small amateur clubs, US Baille and Burel FC. In 2004, he joined the Toulouse FC academy and progressed his way up the ranks.[4] On January 24, 2007, despite being just 17 years old, Khedairia was called up to the senior side for the first time and was on the bench for Toulouse in a Ligue 1 match against Nice.[5] However, he did not play in the game.
In June 2018, he joined USM Bel Abbès,[6] but Khedairia returned to ES Sétif in July 2019[7] where he remained until July 2022, when he joined Saudi club Al-Shoulla.[2] In August 2023, Khedairia signed a two-year contract for USM Khenchela.[8]
International
[edit]Khedairia was called up to the senior Algeria squad for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Lesotho in September 2015.[9]
