Early life and career
Sadaoui was born in Morocco where he started his career in the youth ranks of Wydad Casablanca, before emigrating to the United States with his parents at age 11 to join the youth team of New York Red Bulls playing in the PDA Academy.[1] Growing up in Bayonne, New Jersey, he attended Saint Benedict's Preparatory School, where he won 2011 Prep Player of the Year and was All-Prep First Team in his junior and senior years. He was leading goal scorer that year with 24 overall, taking his team to the playoffs and the national championship. Following his University-preparatory school career he joined the Saint Peter's College, finishing his first season with the Peacocks with 2011–12 All-MAAC Second Team and All-MAAC Rookie Team honors.[2]

Not making his debut in the first team, he was loaned to Hapoel Kfar Saba on a 6-month loan spell for the second half of the 2012–13 Liga Leumit season, making his professional debut in the 2nd tier of professional football in Israel on 15 February 2013 in a 3–0 win against Hapoel Petah Tikva coming on as a 42-minute substitute.[3] The following season saw Sadaoui serving a second loan spell with Hapoel Nazareth Illit for the entire season, parting ways with Maccabi Haifa after the season.[4]
Ajax Cape Town
The Summer of 2014 saw Sadaoui transfer to South African Premier Soccer League side Ajax Cape Town playing under newly appointed manager Roger De Sá.[5] He scored three goals in three matches for Ajax Cape Town, winning the 2015 MTN 8, before parting ways with the club in October.[6]
