Algeria being plundered: Yacine Abed targeted with a huge Qatar naturalization bonus

Qatar is reportedly close to signing Yacine Abed, the 16-year-old Algerian winger who emerged at the U17 Africa Cup of Nations, with the possibility of naturalizing him to play for Qatar. La Gazette du Fennec reports that his father agreed to move to Qatar in exchange for €1 million and a job paying €5,000 a month, while his brother’s education would be covered. Abed would earn €35,000 a month, with a clause restricting a move to Europe and a bonus if he is naturalized. His youth club, Paradou, had appealed to FIFA over the transfer and could receive no compensation because Abed reportedly only has an aspirant contract.
