The following season, JS Kabylie repeated the feat and also went on to win the African Cup of Champions Clubs, beating Zambian side Nkana Red Devils in the final.

In 1991, Medane joined Primeira Liga side F.C. Famalicão. He spent three seasons with the club and left after they were relegated at the end of the 1993–94 season. In 1994, he moved to S.C. Salgueiros with whom he spent just one season before returning to Famalicão. After another season with Famalicão, he returned to Algeria for his second stint with JS Kabylie. In 2000, he captained JS Kabylie to the 2000 CAF Cup title, beating Egyptian side Ismaily in the final. He announced his retirement after the final.
