Mohamed Amine Madani (; Tamazight: ⵎⵓⵀⴰⵎⴻⴷ ⴰⵎⵉⵏⴻ ⵎⴰⴷⴰⵏⵉ; born 20 March 1993) is a professional footballer from Algeria who operates primarily as a centre-back. He currently represents JS Kabylie in the Algerian Ligue 1 and is also a member of the national squad.
Club career
Madani developed through the ranks of the USM Alger Academy but never featured for their first team.[1][2]
In 2014, Madani was loaned out to MC El Eulma, a club then participating in the CAF Champions League, marking his senior-level debut at 22 years old.[2] Two years later, he secured a two-season loan move to USM El Harrach, where he played an instrumental role in their promotion to the top tier, the Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1.[3] In 2017, he made a permanent transfer to JS Saoura.[3]
After an impressive campaign with CS Constantine in 2024, Madani was honored with diplomas and awards recognizing his achievements by La Radieuse Sports Association.[4][5] Subsequently, he committed to a three-year contract with JS Kabylie.[6][7]
International career
Madani was part of the Algeria U20 squad that competed in the 2013 African U-20 Championship, where the team was eliminated during the group phase.
In 2025, he earned his first call-up to the senior national team under coach Vladimir Petković for the 2026 World Cup Qualification, debuting in a friendly match against Uganda.
Later that year, in April 2025, Madani was selected by Madjid Bougherra to join the Algeria A' squad for important second-round qualifiers against Gambia in the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN).
