Club career
Originating from Blida, El Hadj initiated his football journey at the age of six with the local team USM Blida, advancing through their youth academy into the junior squad. Following his mother's advice, he managed to pursue higher education alongside his football development. Subsequently, he transferred to JS Kabylie, although he did not participate in any matches during the 2021–22 season owing to his academic priorities. In the subsequent year, El Hadj underwent a trial period with USM Alger, earned a contract, and contributed significantly to the team’s triumph in the national under-19 championship during his debut season, where he was recognized as man of the match in a decisive 5–1 win. On 23 June 2023, he clinched the U19 league championship—marking his third title that season after victories in the Algiers League and Algerian Cup—and was distinguished as the best goalkeeper in the Play Offs competition.
