While the list of the Algerian national team for the November training camp will be revealed tomorrow, Thursday, uncertainty hovers over midfielder Houssem Aouar, who will miss his club's next match.
Al-Ittihad midfielder Houssem Aouar should miss his team's match against Al-Oruba, scheduled for this Thursday as part of the tenth day of the Saudi Pro League. Indeed, according to several Saudi media sources, Aouar would not be in optimal physical condition for this meeting. Having missed Tuesday's training session, the midfielder was left off the list of players retained by his coach Laurent Blanc.
This situation could also have repercussions at the international level, while
Vladimir Petkovic, the coach of the Algerian national team, is preparing to unveil tomorrow the list of players summoned for the November training camp. Unless it's slight, or a simple slack for tomorrow, a new injury for Houssem Aouar risks compromising his participation in this gatheringespecially taking into account the persistence of his physical problems which slow down his momentum.
Although the player has shown good form since his transfer fromAS Roma towards
Al-Ittihad this summer, his physical problems slowed down his progress. In nine league appearances, Aouar was able to prove decisive by registering five goals and delivering two assistsa sign of a strong comeback on the offensive level.
Despite its successful adaptation within the Saudi championship, this injury could raise questions about his physical condition and his ability to play in matches. The situation is therefore closely monitored by the supporters and the staff of the Algerian team, especially since the former Lyonnais established himself as a major asset for the next decisive matches of the selection.
