If the choice of Algeria was a obvious to Ismaël Bennacer, he had to face pressure from his father. This last who is a moroccan didn’t want his son to play for the nation of
his mother. This is what was finally done and the Milanese confessed in a recent interview on RMC that this decision was not the easiest of its
life.
” Choosing between Algeria and Morocco was not an easy task for me. My father used to tell me that he wouldn’t speak to me if I opted for Algeria “, He said.
Years later, this choice is paying off. Since during his first international competition with the Fennecs, he won the CAN 2019 and was named best player of the tournament.
” Without this final coronation of the African Cup of Nations that we won, I would never have regretted my choice for Algeria “, He concluded.
Note that this is the second time that Ismaël Bennacer talks about the choice of his international career. In the two interviews, he exteriorized this real desire to play for the nation of his mother.
