Boudawi Announces Readiness and Strengthens Algeria's Ranks Before Bolivia Friendly and Argentina Clash

The Algerian national team regained the services of its midfielder, Hicham Boudawi, after he participated normally in the morning training session today, Sunday, following his full recovery from the injury he had been suffering from in the past period, thus putting an end to doubts about his readiness.

Hicham Boudawi had joined the 'Desert Warriors' camp suffering from an injury to the face and head, which he sustained on May 26 during his club Nice's match against Saint-Étienne in the first leg of the relegation play-off in the French Ligue 1.

This injury caused him to miss the second leg match held on May 29, and also led coach Vladimir Petković to exempt him from traveling to Rotterdam, where the Algerian national team played a friendly against the Netherlands, which ended with a victory for the 'Desert Warriors' last Wednesday.

In a positive development, Boudawi appeared on Sunday morning in the national team's camp in Kansas City, USA, where he participated in group training normally without any restrictions, confirming his complete recovery and regaining his physical fitness.

This development gives the technical staff great relief before the anticipated friendly this Wednesday against Bolivia, in a final test one week before the Algerian national team's official first appearance in the World Cup against Argentina.
