Temporary end of Volendam brotherly quarrel: Walid Ould-Chikh rented out to Roda JC

Walid Ould-Chikh will play football in South Limburg next season. The FC Volendam midfielder is rented out to Roda JC for one season. The 23-year-old midfielder hopes to make more playing minutes with the first divisionist.

This brings a (temporary) end to the period of the Ould-Chikh brothers at FC Volendam. Walid and Bilal have been playing together in the fishing village for two seasons. Last season, Walid played 27 games in the Eredivisie, but he never played a full game. Bilal Ould-Chikh was recently removed from the selection three times, but is still part of the group.

Robbie Servais, football affairs manager of Roda JC, confirmed to multiple media outlets that Ould-Chikh’s transition is almost complete. Only the paperwork still needs to be completed.

At Roda JC, the chance of playing minutes is considerably greater. Volendam hopes that Ould-Chikh can develop into a better footballer there. Ould-Chikh has been brought in from Limburg as an attacking midfielder. At FC Volendam, however, he was often used as a defensive midfielder or as a winger. Ould-Chikh is still under contract with FC Volendam until mid-2025 with an option for one more season.

Last year, NH Sport made the report below with Walid and Bilal Ould-Chikh in Volendam.
