According to Walfoot, Bahmed Deuff has completed a loan transfer to Antwerp from Nantes. The loan will last until the end of the season and contains an option to buy estimated at two million euros. This season, Deuff has made three appearances in Ligue 2 for Nantes, with one as a starter. Nantes loaned him so he could get more playing time and continue his development, while the arrangement gives Antwerp the opportunity to evaluate him for a full season before a possible investment.

According to Het Nieuwsblad, Bahmed Deuff is currently at Antwerp for a medical examination. The 20-year-old Mauritanian is reportedly being loaned by Nantes to Antwerp with the aim of further strengthening competition in the midfield.

After not succeeding in its pursuit of Nemanja Gudelj, Antwerp is now interested in Bahmed Deuff. Deuff is a 20-year-old Mauritanian defensive midfielder who also holds French citizenship and is under contract with Nantes until mid-2029. It is reported that Antwerp is seeking to loan the player with an option to buy for around two million, and Nieuwsblad also confirms this detail. Deuff has not yet made his senior international debut for Mauritania. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €1.20m.
