Algeria is facing a significant setback ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations as Youcel Belaïli, one of their key offensive players, has been injured. Belaïli sustained the injury while playing for Espérance Tunis against Club Africain, and the situation looked serious from the footage available.
According to Radio Mosaïque FM, medical tests have revealed that the 33-year-old has torn the cruciate ligaments in his right knee. This injury, a major concern for footballers, will unfortunately end the season for the former Brest and AC Ajaccio player. It is a significant blow for the dynamic winger, who has been a frequent call-up for the national team and will now miss both the Africa Cup of Nations and the upcoming World Cup.
