Houssem Aouar always raises the suspense regarding his arrival in the Algerian team. According to the latest news, the Olympique Lyonnais midfielder is slow to continue the process of changing his sporting nationality.
With a view to injecting new blood into the workforce of the national team, the Algerian football federation is continuing its negotiations with certain binational players. As of press time, only one player has officially changed his sporting nationality. Rayane Ait-Nouri, since it is about him, is available to Djamel Belmadi from the next internship in March.
In addition to the left side of Wolverhampton, another binational is expected to join the Greens from the next grouping. It is, in fact, Houssem Aouar. But, apparently, the Olympique Lyonnais midfielder is still far from certain. Admittedly, he is eligible for Algeria, but he is still slow to change his sporting nationality.
Aouar at the Greens: It will not be for the month of March?
Indeed, the young 24-year-old player did not pursue the steps to change his sporting nationality. “For Aouar, it’s the status quo”. Reveals a source close to the file to our Competition colleagues.
It must be said that this opens the door to speculation if Aouar is really keen on the idea of representing the Greens at the expense of the Blues on the international level. And one month before the next national selection course, we wonder if he will be present or not. And this, given the slowness of the execution of the naturalization process.
It should be recalled that the president of the FAF, Djahid Zefizef, said on January 6 that he had reached an agreement with Houssem Aouar. “Houssem Aouar gave us his agreement to join the Algerian selection”. He revealed on national radio. But as of press time, there’s still nothing concrete.
It should also be remembered that the Lyonnais already asked Djamel Belmadi for an extension last September due to the difficult situation he was experiencing at OL.
