Club career

On May 24, 2012, Belaïli traveled to Tunisia to negotiate a move to Tunisian club Espérance de Tunis.[5] Two days later, he announced that he had agreed to personal terms with the club and would be signing a three-year contract in the upcoming days.[6] On June 5, Belaïli officially joined Espérance, signing a three-year contract worth €2 million.[7] On July 20, Belaïli made his debut for Espérance as a substitute against ASO Chlef in the group stage of the 2012 CAF Champions League. Coming on in the 77th minute, Belaïli won his team a penalty to level the score and then provided an assist for Yannick N'Djeng in injury time to help Espérance win the game.[8]

International career

Belaili was called up to participate in the 2010 UNAF U-23 Tournament. On 13 December 2010, he scored an own goal in the fifty-fourth minute against the Cameroonian under 23 side. On November 16, 2011, he was selected as part of Algeria's squad for the 2011 CAF U-23 Championship in Morocco.[9]

Doping ban

In September 2015 it was announced that Belaïli was banned from sports for two years by the Confederation of African Football after testing positive for cocaine after a CAF Champions League match 7 August 2015.[10] However, in March 2016, FIFA confirmed they were giving an extended four-year ban to apply worldwide through 19 September 2019.[11]
