Career
On 16 January 2022, Mohamed Ait El Hadj made his first league appearance with USM Alger against MC Alger.[1] Aït El Hadj was going to be free in the summer 2022, because his old contract was to expire on July 7, 2022, making it necessary for him to extend it as soon as possible, at the risk of seeing him join another club. Aït El Hadj and Abderraouf Othmani represent the future of the club, and it is therefore logical that they have been extended underlined the Usmist management.[2] On 1 April, Ait El Hadj scored his first league goal against JS Kabylie.[3] On June 3, 2023, Ait El Hadj won the first title in his football career by winning the 2022–23 CAF Confederation Cup after defeating Young Africans of Tanzania.[4][5]
On August 16, 2023, Ait El Hadj renewed his contract for two seasons until 2026, although he was not in the plans of his coach Abdelhak Benchikha.[6][7] On 15 September 2023, Ait El Hadj won the CAF Super Cup title after winning against Al Ahly, it is the second African title with USM Alger in three months.[8] After a complicated season, Ait El Hadj having been patient for a long time ended up demanding his release. Ait El Hadj rejected the idea of loaning him to another club and insisted on changing his direction, and chose another club that would give him the opportunity to play regularly. Ait El Hadj accompanied by his agent, conducted an interview with the club's sporting director Taoufik Korichi who convinced him to stay.[9]
