Algeria: Luca Zidane left out by Hemdani for both matches against Togo

Algeria coach Brahim Hemdani announced his squad on November 5 for the third and fourth rounds of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, leaving out Luca Zidane. The Leganés goalkeeper, who plays in Spain’s second division, had served a two-match suspension stemming from incidents in the 2024 AFCON quarter-final against Nigeria but has had a difficult start to the season. Hemdani selected Oussama Benbot, Melvin Mastil and Abdelatif Ramdane, saying he wanted three goalkeepers with as much playing time as possible. Zidane could return to the national team if he strings together strong performances for his club.
