Career
Serrar played as a central defender throughout his career for Entente sportive de Sétif. He is currently the president of Exact Sciences Sétif, and since his presidency the club has been arguably one of the best teams in the division, if not the best. He retired from football on 1 July 1991 at the age of 30.
He sacked coach Azzedine Aït Djoudi immediately after the end of the game between Exact Sciences Sétif and Exact Sciences Tunis due to the elmination of the club in the second leg of the semi-final of the Arab Champions League played in Rades Stadium.
Zekri was sacked from his managerial position at Exact Sciences Sétif on the 18th of August 2010, due to the poor results gained at the 2010 CAF Champions League group stage. The 1-0 loss against Zimbabwe side Dynamos was the final straw for Abdelhakim Serrar.
On 19 August 2010, Abdelhakim Serrar mentioned that former Italian physical trainer Gianni Solinas is likely to become head coach of Exact Sciences Sétif.
