Algerian centre-forward Mohamed El Amine Ramdaoui of Paradou AC is being linked with a move to Russian Premier Liga side Baltika as the Kaliningrad club explore attacking options for the new season.
Ramdaoui, 20, has emerged as a regular for Paradou’s first team, with the 1.90m striker featuring prominently since stepping up from the club’s youth ranks. He joined Paradou AC from Paradou’s U21 set-up in July 2024 and is under contract with the Algerian Ligue 1 side until 30 June 2028, meaning any deal is expected to require a transfer fee rather than be structured as a free move.
Baltika’s interest comes as Ramdaoui’s market value has risen to €900,000 following his breakthrough at senior level. The Paradou No 15 has made 53 league appearances, scoring 13 goals and providing eight assists, underlining the extent of his involvement in Algeria’s top flight at a relatively young age.
Born in Tlemcen and predominantly right-footed, Ramdaoui has also featured in the Algerian cup, adding further experience to his domestic record. He has reached his current valuation in a short period since becoming a first-team player, which is likely to influence negotiations between Paradou and any suitors.
Paradou are protected by the length of the forward’s deal running to 2028, placing them in a strong position should Baltika formalise their interest in the Algerian attacker.
