Jugurtha Hamroun (Arabic: يوغرطة حمرون‎‎; born 27 January 1989) is an Algerian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Qatari club Al Sadd SC.

After starting out at Guingamp in France, he went on to compete professionally in Bulgaria, Turkey, Romania and Qatar.

Hamroun represented Algeria at under-23 level, making his debut in November 2011.

Hamroun was born in the town of Bouzeguene in the Tizi Ouzou Province. At age 5, he moved with his family to France, where they settled in Neuilly-sur-Marne in the eastern suburbs of Paris.

At age 12, Hamroun joined the youth ranks of French club En Avant de Guingamp. On 8 April 2008, he signed his first professional contract, for a period of three years, and on 29 August of that year he made his Ligue 2 debut, coming as a substitute for Cédric Liabeuf in the 83rd minute of a 1–1 home draw against CS Sedan Ardennes.

During his three-year spell at the Stade du Roudourou, Hamroun alternated between the first team and the reserves, going on to appear in 26 competitive games for the former, including twice in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League.
