For sports director Gorenzel, Belkahia is one of the top talents in the 3rd division.

Since his
comeback in a 5-0 win against Mannheim
(December 12th), the 1.93-meter slug has become an integral part of the extended team.

"Semi is considered one of the most talented central defenders in the third division," enthuses the sports director: "We are therefore delighted that Semi is continuing along the path with us at 1860." There is still time for the end of his career in ten years.
