HJK (loan)
editOn 1 March 2022, Boujellab joined HJK in Finland on loan.[5] He became temporarily ineligible to play for HJK early in July 2022, as HJK originally acquired him on a "sub-loan" from FC Ingolstadt, who earlier loaned him from Schalke until 30 June 2022. When that date was reached, his rights automatically reverted to Schalke and Schalke could only transfer him back on loan to HJK when the international transfer window re-opened on 13 July.[6]
