“I want to go far with Algeria, score many goals and become the best scorer in the history of the selection,” Chiakha said on Tuesday. A huge goal for a player who has not yet opened his account with the national team.
Islam Slimani currently holds the record with 46 goals. Chiakha, 20 years old, has time ahead of him but will first have to establish himself in the squad.
The bet is risky but the ambition is admirable. Algerian fans will closely follow the performances of the young forward.
