Zulte Waregem is interested in acquiring Arafat Doumbia, a 20-year-old midfielder currently playing for CR Belouizdad in Algeria. The club plans to secure his transfer for the upcoming summer mercato. Doumbia has made a significant impact in both the Algerian league and the CAF Champions League. Zulte Waregem is facing competition from French clubs Lorient and Nancy, as well as the Tunisian top club Espérance de Tunis, who have also shown interest in the Ivorian youth international. Despite the competition, Zulte Waregem is eager to bring Doumbia to the Gaverbeek, where he could join other Ivorian talents like Ibrahim Diabaté, Eroine Agnikoi, and Abdoulaye Traoré, who have been previously signed by the club.
