Frosinone close to sealing Ghedjemis extension as rivals lose interest
On a sunny afternoon at the Stadio Benito Stirpe, Farès Ghedjemis, the 24‑year‑old Algerian forward, appears set to extend his stay at Frosinone, with talks nearing completion according to specialist journalist Nicolo Schira. The club, which recently returned to Serie A, is preparing a new deal that could run until 2030 or 2031.
Farès Ghedjemis is currently contracted to Frosinone until June 2028. The Italian side have already begun work on a new deal that would extend his stay beyond that date. Club officials see the forward as a key component of their squad.
Extension talks progress
According to specialist transfer journalist Nicolo Schira, negotiations between player and club are moving favourably and an agreement appears close. Tuttosport has echoed the report, suggesting the new contract could run until 2030 or even 2031. The extension is expected to improve Ghedjemis' financial terms.
Frosinone's strategic aims
Frosinone aim to lock down the Algerian striker to prevent rival clubs from re‑engaging. The club has recently entered a new phase after its promotion back to Serie A and the arrival of a majority‑holding American investment group. Securing Ghedjemis fits the medium‑ and long‑term project the owners have outlined.
During the summer, Ghedjemis' name was linked with several European sides. Monaco, Besiktas, Celtic and Glasgow Rangers all monitored his situation. None of the approaches resulted in a transfer, reportedly because Frosinone's financial demands were not met.
At 24, the forward now faces a different path. Rather than moving abroad, he is poised to sign a longer deal that could see him develop further in Italy. The club expects him to become an important element of its renewed ambitions.
The move underlines how Italian clubs are willing to invest in retaining emerging talent amid heightened competition. By extending Ghedjemis, Frosinone hopes to build continuity as it consolidates its Serie A status under new ownership.
