Algeria: Ilan Kebbal voices concerns over playing time

Ilan Kebbal

Despite being on fire with Paris FC, Ilan Kebbal is struggling for minutes with the national team. He knows what he needs to do.

With Paris FC, Ilan Kebbal has made a promising start to the season. Yet the young Algerian winger is getting very little playing time for his country. Questioned by Ligue 1+, the former Reims player did not hide his frustration.

"I'm going to try not to overthink it. I'd love to play and get a bit more time on the pitch, that's for sure. I just have to keep working, and I hope I'll get more opportunities to show what I can do, because I know I can bring something to the team. Getting called up was already a goal, now I'm here and if the team needs me, I'll be ready," he said.

It must be said that in his position, Riyad Mahrez and Anis Hadj Moussa have a head start as the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco approaches.
