Nassim Boujellab (Arabic: نسيم بوجلاب; born 20 June 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Jahn Regensburg.[1] Born in Germany, Boujellab represents the Morocco national team.

Club career

Schalke 04

Boujellab made his professional debut for Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga on 31 March 2019, coming on as a substitute in the 79th minute for Suat Serdar in the 1–0 away win against Hannover 96.[2]

FC Ingolstadt (loan)

On 25 July 2021, he joined 2. Bundesliga club FC Ingolstadt on a one-year loan deal.[3] On 23 January 2022, his loan contract with Ingolstadt was terminated with immediate effect because, according to the club, he "repeatedly violated internal club and team rules and regulations".[4]

HJK (loan)

On 1 March 2022, Boujellab joined HJK in Finland on loan.[5] He became temporarily ineligible to play for HJK early in July 2022, as HJK originally acquired him on a "sub-loan" from FC Ingolstadt, who earlier loaned him from Schalke until 30 June 2022. When that date was reached, his rights automatically reverted to Schalke and Schalke could only transfer him back on loan to HJK when the international transfer window re-opened on 13 July.[6]

Arminia Bielefeld

On 28 June 2023, Boujellab joined Arminia Bielefeld, newly relegated from the 2. Bundesliga.[7]

TSV Havelse

Boujellab joined TSV Havelse ahead of the 2025–26 season on a one-year contract after his contract with Bielefeld expired.[8]

Jahn Regensburg

After only one season with Havelse, Boujellab joined Jahn Regensburg on a two-year contract.[9]

International career

Boujellab was born in Germany, and is Moroccan by descent holding dual citizenship. Boujellab was called up to the Morocco under-23 national team for the first time in September 2018.[10] He made his under-23 debut in October 2018, making two appearances in friendly matches against Algeria.[11][12] He represented the senior Morocco national team in a friendly 3–1 win over Senegal on 9 October 2020.[13]
