Fady Khatir: French-Moroccan defender leaves Dijon to become free agent

French-Moroccan left-back Fady Khatir has left Ligue 2 side Dijon and is now a free agent after reaching the end of his spell with the French club. The 29-year-old, who can operate on the left side of defence, departs the Burgundy outfit as he looks for the next step in his career.

Khatir exits Dijon with an estimated market value of around €250,000, underlining his status as an experienced option on the left flank. His departure means he is free to negotiate and sign with a new club outside the constraints of a transfer fee, offering flexibility to any side seeking defensive reinforcements.

The left-back had been part of a Dijon squad competing in France’s second tier, with Ligue 2 providing a consistent platform for his development in recent seasons. His dual French and Moroccan nationality also keeps open potential pathways at both domestic and international levels, depending on where he next decides to play.

At 29, Khatir is entering what is typically regarded as a defender’s peak years, and his availability on the market will likely attract interest from clubs aiming to add experience and depth on the left side of their back line. For now, his departure confirms that his time with Dijon is over, with the player officially listed as without a club following the conclusion of his contract.
