On 10 April 2022, Ghalidi made his debut in the Belgian Pro League, in a 3–0 loss away to his previous club. He came on as a substitute in the 64th minute.[3]

On 8 July 2025, Ghalidi signed a three-year contract with NAC Breda in the Netherlands, with a club option to extend for two more years.[6]
