“He’ll join Algeria but won’t play”: Hull City announce Bachir Belloumi’s withdrawal

Hull City manager Sergej Jakirović said Bachir Belloumi is experiencing muscle pain and will miss Algeria’s two upcoming matches against Togo on November 14 and 17 in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The 24-year-old winger will join the national team to have his injury assessed but will not be able to play. Hull City expects him to need three weeks to recover, aiming for his return against Brighton on November 22. Anis Hadj Moussa is a likely replacement on the wing.
