Mohamed Bouldini (Arabic: محمد بولديني; born 27 November 1995) is a Moroccan footballer who plays as a forward.

Club career

Born in Casablanca, Bouldini signed for Botola club Raja CA in 2015. Unwanted, he moved in January 2018 to Ittihad Tanger in the same league, for a fee of 1 million Moroccan dirhams. After six goalless games, his contract was rescinded.[2] Following a trial, he signed a one-year deal with Portuguese LigaPro side U.D. Oliveirense in July 2018.[3]

On 27 August 2020, Bouldrini signed for Académica de Coimbra of the same league.[4] With 13 goals over the season, he ranked second to F.C. Vizela's Cassiano.[5] On 23 November, he scored the only goal of a home win over Varzim S.C. in the third round of the Taça de Portugal.[6]

Bouldini signed a three-year contract with Primeira Liga club C.D. Santa Clara on 18 June 2021.[7] The following 8 January, after featuring sparingly, he was loaned to Spanish Segunda División side CF Fuenlabrada for the remainder of the season.[8]

On 29 June 2022, despite Fuenla's relegation, the club exercised his buyout clause.[9] On 23 August, however, he moved to second division side Levante UD on a five-year contract.[10]

On 29 August 2024, Bouldini signed a four-year deal with Deportivo de La Coruña also in the Spanish second division.[11] Exactly one year later, he moved to fellow league team Granada CF on a one-year loan deal,[12] with Stoichkov moving in the opposite direction.

Upon returning, Bouldini terminated his link with Dépor on 31 July 2026.[13]

International career

In August 2015, while at Raja, Bouldini was a surprise call-up for the Morocco national team under manager Ezzaki Badou, for a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against São Tomé and Príncipe.[14] He did not play in the 3–0 away win on 5 September.[15]
