Free since his departure from Olympique de Marseille in June 2025, 30-year-old Congolese defender Chancel Mbemba has received a very appealing two-year contract offer from Qatar SC, with an annual salary close to one million euros. Despite not playing any club minutes last season due to a contractual dispute with Marseille, Mbemba remains highly regarded for his leadership and experience, especially with the DR Congo national team where he plays a key role.
This opportunity in Qatar could mark a turning point for the defender, providing him with playing time and financial stability. With previous spells at notable European clubs like Porto and Newcastle, Mbemba is still considering the offer, while other Gulf clubs, notably Emirati side Al Ain, have expressed interest with sometimes even more lucrative packages.
The choice will be crucial for Mbemba, who seeks to balance sporting ambition with contractual security for the final years of his career. His experience and defensive solidity could be vital for Qatar SC’s efforts to improve their standings, as the player aims to regain form and revive his career after a tough year at Marseille.
