Algeria: Good and bad news from Italy for Hemdani

Ahead of his next squad announcement and Algeria’s two matches against Togo, coach Brahim Hemdani received mixed news from Italy. Farès Ghedjemis scored his first Serie A goal in Frosinone’s 2-0 win over Torino, a week after providing three assists. The 24-year-old winger now has one goal and three assists across his last two matches, while Rafik Belghali left the pitch limping. The two Algerians could therefore have contrasting prospects for the November 14 and 17 Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifiers.
