Career
Early career
Abdennour was born in Sousse, Tunisia, and started his career at Étoile Sportive du Sahel in 2008. During his spell there, he was a fan favourite despite being one of the youngest players in the team. In the 2008–09 season he scored five goals for his club, but they missed on the title and finished third.
On 14 January 2010, Abdennour signed a half-year loan deal with SV Werder Bremen which initially saw him stay at the club until the end of the 2009–10 season. Bremen had the contract option to sign him permanently.[1] Abdennour made six appearances for Werder Bremen, but they did not take up the option to sign him and he returned to Étoile.
Toulouse
In July 2011, Abdennour signed a four-year contract with the Ligue 1 side Toulouse. In February 2012, Toulouse extended this, tying the Tunisian to a deal running until 2016.
Monaco
On 31 January 2014, Abdennour joined the league rivals Monaco on a loan deal.[2] After impressing during a loan spell, he signed a four-year deal with Monaco on 4 July 2014.[3] The 2014–15 season was a successful season for Abdennour and his team, with a third place in Ligue 1 and an elimination against Champions League's finalist Juventus in the quarter final.
Valencia
In August 2015, after a good season with Monaco, Abdennour signed a five-year deal until 2020 with La Liga side Valencia CF for an undisclosed fee, mainly as a replacement to Manchester City-bound Nicolás Otamendi.[4]
International career
His excellent domestic performances earned him a call up to the Tunisia squad, and he has now won 41 caps for his country,[5] scoring one goal.
He was also the captain of the under-21 team.[6]
