Algeria's Right Wing Position Crowded With Top Talent

The right wing position in the Algerian national team is currently filled with multiple high-caliber players, creating a challenging selection dilemma for coaches.
Riyad Mahrez, who has consistently performed well and avoided injuries, has left the position vacant. This has opened up opportunities for several notable players, including Adam Ounas, who has played for Napoli, Lille, and Bordeaux, and Rachid Ghezzal, who has experience with Lyon, Leicester City, Fiorentina, Beşiktaş, and Monaco.
Anis Ben Slimane, a star player for Feyenoord, was initially seen as a natural successor to Mahrez. However, Billel Bensoula has recently emerged as a strong contender, dividing fan opinions. Some supporters view Ben Slimane as the rightful heir, while others see Bensoula as more effective. There have even been suggestions to split playing time between the two players or use them together.
