The Wolfsburg star scored 5 goals in the two matches against Botswana and Mozambique, which counted for the 5th and 6th rounds of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

At 24 years old, the native of Jijel has had an incredible journey, having played with amateurs not long ago before breaking into professional football in 2020 with Entente Sportive de Sétif.

Moreover, he considered ending his career in 2017 due to his precarious financial situation and his desire to find a job that would provide a steady income.

In 27 matches with his club Wolfsburg this season, Mohamed Amoura has scored 10 goals and provided 8 assists.

Additionally, he scored 7 goals and provided 2 assists in 6 matches with the Fennecs in the qualifiers for the 2025 AFCON and the 2026 World Cup.
