Afcon: Montpellier star Andy Delort accepts Algeria snub in good faithThe 27-year-old will wait for his debut call-up to the national team after he was omitted from coach Djamel Belmadi's selection for Afconstar Andy Delort has sent his best wishes to after missing out on the country’s 23-man squad for the 2019 . Delort was born to an Algerian mother in the city of Sete and played for the U20 team once. Last month, the 27-year-old pledged his international allegiance to Algeria and has received the country's passport. However, coach Djamel Belmadi left the forward out of his final selection for next month’s continental showpiece in on Thursday. Algeria will begin their campaign for a second Afcon title with their Group C opening game against on June 23.
