The Algerian coach confirmed in a press conference that talks with the two young talents are progressing. Merah and Massolin are being courted by other national teams, but Algeria remains in a strong position.
Khalis Merah, a 19-year-old attacking midfielder, plays in Europe. Yanis Massolin, a 20-year-old central defender, also plays abroad. Both could join the Fenneks in the coming months.
Hemdani did not give a specific date for their integration. He simply indicated that the process is ongoing.
