Amir Selmane Ramy Bensebaïni (Arabic: أمير سلمان رامي بن سبعيني; born 16 April 1995) is an Algerian professional footballer who plays as a left-back or centre-back for Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund and the Algeria national team.

Club career

Paradou AC

Born in Constantine, Bensebaïni began his career at Paradou AC, joining the youth team in 2008 and making his senior debut in 2013. In the summer of 2013, Bensebaïni went on trial with Porto and was later handed a two-week trial by English Premier League side Arsenal, during which he played in two friendlies with the under-21 team against Luton Town and Colchester.

In June 2014, Bensebaïni was loaned out by Paradou for one season to Belgian Pro League club Lierse. He made his full debut on 3 August in a league match against Club Brugge, coming on as a 94th-minute substitute for Wanderson. Bensebaïni made 23 league appearances during the course of the season, scoring 1 goal, but could not help Lierse avoid relegation.

In June 2015, Bensebaïni was loaned out again by Paradou, this time to French club Montpellier for the 2015–16 Ligue 1 season.

Rennes

On 5 July 2016, he signed a four-year contract with Rennes.

Borussia Mönchengladbach

On 14 August 2019, Bensebaïni signed a four-year deal to join Borussia Mönchengladbach for 8 million euros.

He made his debut for the team in the Bundesliga as a starter during a win against 1. FC Köln. On 10 November, he scored his first goal with his new club against Werder Bremen. In the same game, however, he was sent off. On 7 December 2019, he scored a brace in a 2–1 win against defending Bundesliga champions Bayern München.

In April 2023, Gladbach's sporting director Roland Virkus confirmed that Bensebaïni would depart the club at the end of the 2022–23 campaign, having chosen not to renew his contract.

Borussia Dortmund

On 5 June 2023, Bensebaïni signed a four-year contract to join Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer. On 12 August 2023, he made his official debut for the club in a 6–1 away win against Schott Mainz in the DFB Pokal.

International career

On 19 July 2015, Bensebaïni made his debut for Algeria national under-23 football team in a 2015 Africa U-23 Cup of Nations qualifying match against Sierra Leone.

In November 2015, Bensebaïni was called up to the Algeria national team for the first time for a pair of 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Tanzania.

In December 2023, he was named in Algeria's squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
