The technical staff of the Algerian national football team received unfortunate news after the Algerian international Ilan Kebbal sustained an injury, just a few days before the team's training camp scheduled for next week. This camp is in preparation for the friendly matches against the Guatemala national football team and the Uruguay national football team on March 27 and 31 in Italy.

This camp represents the first preparatory stage for the team led by captain Riyad Mahrez in preparation for the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

French press reports revealed that the "Greens" winger will be absent from his club Paris FC for the second consecutive match when the team visits Strasbourg as part of the French league competition.

Qabal was absent from his team's last match in Lyon due to suspension, before it was confirmed that he was suffering from an injury to his left thigh, which also kept him out of training last weekend.

According to the French newspaper L'Équipe, the player will not be included in his team's squad for the upcoming match against Strasbourg, which raises concerns within the Algerian national team just days before the start of the training camp, especially since reports have not yet disclosed the severity of the injury.

Qabal is expected to undergo thorough medical examinations in the coming days to determine the nature of his injury and the potential duration of his absence from the field, which will decide his participation in the national team camp.
