Boualem Khoukhi, the Algerian footballer who has played for clubs in Europe and South America, recently announced his retirement from professional football after 16 years in the game. Khoukhi started his career with Al Ahly SC in Egypt before moving to Portugal's Benfica for €2 million in 2015.

Khoukhi's time at Qatar SC was perhaps one of the highlights of his career. He joined the club in 2018 and immediately made an impact, scoring six goals in 17 appearances for the club. However, he struggled with injuries throughout his time there, which limited his playing time.

Despite this setback, Khoukhi remained committed to his career and continued to train hard. He returned to action in January 2020, but unfortunately, he was unable to play due to injury again.

In June 2020, Khoukhi officially retired from professional football. He thanked his supporters for their support over the years and expressed his gratitude for the opportunities he had been given during his career.

The end of Khoukhi's time at Qatar SC marked the end of an era for the club. The club will undoubtedly miss his contributions and skills on the pitch. Despite his retirement, Khoukhi remains a respected figure in the world of football and is likely to be remembered as one of the most talented players to have ever played for the club.
