Nizar El Jmili Ben Hamou, a 2004-born Castellón native, has emerged as one of Primera Federación’s early-season standouts with Villarreal B. According to El Periódico Mediterráneo, the fearless right winger has supplied three assists in five matches and nailed down a starting place.

He impressed last season under David Albelda, and this campaign his form has taken off with Villarreal B.

Direct and dribble-happy, Nizar thrives on running at defenders and delivering in the final third. His rise owes more to relentlessness than luck, the product of countless tests before consolidation in yellow.

His youth journey began at CD Roda in 2013, then Salesianos de Burriana, the Valencia CF academy, Primer Toque and CD Almazora’s youth ranks. He returned to Villarreal’s set-up in 2022 with the maturity to own the Mini Estadi flank.

Selfless in advanced areas, he couples individual menace with a team-first eye that unsettles backlines. At Miralcamp they see a latest gem who blends talent with graft, and whose trajectory points to a bright future in the professional game.
