Adil Boulbina winks at Vladimir Petkovic

Adil Boulbina continues to make headlines in Qatar. Having arrived this summer from Paradou AC, the young Algerian forward quickly established himself in the colors of Al-Duhail. His most recent performance left a mark during a resounding 8-1 victory over Al-Arabi: with two goals and two assists, he was rightfully named player of the week by SofaScore, earning a perfect 10/10 rating. Such an achievement is rare and confirms his meteoric rise. Since joining, the former Paradou man has already played eight matches across all competitions, tallying four goals and three assists. These numbers speak volumes about his rapid adaptation and ruthless efficiency.

A potential trump card for Algeria A’

This breakthrough in Qatar could change the dynamics for the national A’ team. Madjid Bougherra, currently preparing for the FIFA Arab Cup 2025 in Qatar, may have found a lethal weapon in Boulbina. Thanks to his creativity and versatility, the player has everything needed to energize a team looking to defend its 2021 title. If the Algerian coach continues to monitor his progress, a call-up seems increasingly likely.There remains the question of his future with the senior team. So far, Vladimir Petkovic has never selected Boulbina, even during his best spells. The coach appears unconvinced by his profile, but if the former Paradou star maintains this level, he could well force his way into the Greens’ squad. As Algeria looks to expand its attacking options, his name could soon become an obvious choice.
