Farès Chaïbi (Toulouse) also chooses Algeria
Like the Lyonnais Houssem Aouar and Jaouen Hadjam from Nantes, Farès Chaïbi expressed his national preference on Tuesday. The young Toulouse attacking midfielder (20), born in Bron in the outskirts of Lyon, announced on social networks that he wanted to defend the colors of Algeria, the country of origin of his parents.
Never called up to the French youth teams yet, he did not leave the French Federation indifferent with his performances, and had even been pre-summoned to the Espoirs tricolores for the next rally. Author of 4 goals (in 25 matches) for his first season in Ligue 1, Chaïbi had already been summoned twice to the Algerian Espoirs selection, without responding favorably until then. This did not prevent its leaders to hope for a positive outcome in autumn.
This one has just arrived with this official announcement. Nothing now stands in the way of the first appearance with the Fennecs of the player trained at Téfécé.
