Already debut against São Paulo for Santos?
The player already trains and has a contract signed. However, it still needs to resolve the procedures for the release of your work visa, as well as gaining pace of play and rapport with your new companions.
Therefore, Bilal will not be on the field to face Sao Paulo next Sunday. The good news is Rolheiser’s return, which served suspension against Atletico-MG.

Who is Billal Brahimi?
Billal Brahimi is a Franco-Argeline striker born on March 14, 2000, in Paris, France. Despite starting his career in European football, the player chose to represent Algeria’s national team on the international scene.
Brahimi’s formation began in the French and English club base categories. He passed through Leixões, from Portugal, and then joined the youth system of Middlesbrough, England, where he took his first steps as a professional.
In 2019, he returned to France to defend Stade de Reims and Angers, where he won more minutes on the field and fell as a young promise.
In 2022, Billal signed with Nice. However, without much space in the main team, the striker was loaned in the 2023/24 season to Sint-Truiden, from Belgium, where he had more opportunities to act regularly.
Brahimi was free to sign with any team after contract termination with Nice, made official on September 1st.
In the international scenario, Brahimi began to defend the Algerian team from 2022. His style of play caught the attention of coach Djamel Belmadi, who started to summon him to friendly and official competitions.
