Although he is already 36 years old, Hillal Soudani still enjoys playing football. At the end of his career, he decided to transfer to Slovenia, where this season he has already scored 13 goals in 26 matches in all competitions. On average, he scores in every other match, and his contribution to Ljudski vrt is undoubtedly appreciated. It is expected that Hillal Soudani will continue to delight the fans of Maribor next season as well, as he has a contract until summer 2025.
Meanwhile, an interesting piece of information has emerged from his homeland that Hillal Soudani has made history in Algerian football by playing in the Maribor jersey. When he scored his second goal in the match against Mura in early April, he celebrated his 100th league goal in European domestic leagues. He thus became only the fifth Algerian to achieve such a feat.
Hillal Soudani is currently at 101 goals, meaning he needs only four more goals to move into second place. Currently occupying that position is Rafik Djebbour (104), who spent most of his career in Greece, where he also played for Olympiakos and AEK. However, it will be more challenging for Hillal Soudani to reach the top spot. Currently leading the chart is the legendary Rachid Mekhloufi, who scored 151 league goals in Europe as a member of Saint-Etienne, Servette, and Bastia.
