Rafik Halliche (born 2 September 1986) is an Algerian former professional footballer who played as a central defender.

[3] After seven years with the club he joined the junior ranks of NA Hussein Dey, making his senior debut on 30 January 2006 in a league match against Paradou AC, coming on as a substitute in the 74th minute.

[4] In the January 2008 transfer window, Halliche received interest from several French sides, including AJ Auxerre and Valenciennes FC.

[11] Halliche made his official début 8 January 2011, replacing Brede Hangeland in the FA Cup's third round tie against Peterborough United: he conceded a penalty in the 85th minute for tripping Craig Mackail-Smith, in an eventual 6–2 win.

[14] Swansea City made a successful loan bid for Halliche during the 2011 summer transfer window, but several weeks after the deadline, FIFA denied international clearance to Swansea for both his move and Darnel Situ's move from RC Lens, leaving the defender as a Fulham player subject to an appeal by the Welsh side.

[22] He was also selected to the following edition by coach Vahid Halilhodžić, as captain,[23] and contributed decisively to a 4–2 group victory over South Korea on 22 June, heading home from a corner kick for his country's second goal.
