Coming off the bench for the past three games, as well as scoring a great goal against West Brom, it seems Sofiane Boufal is slowly growing on Mauricio Pellegrino.
Finally showing what he is capable of, the Morocco international, who hasn’t played for his national team since last May, in a 2-1 loss to the Netherlands, is expected to be finally recalled by Hervé Renard.
This is what Al Ahdath Al Maghribia, relayed by Le360 Sport, are saying in their Tuesday edition, with the Southampton star convincing his international manager with his recent performances.
Currently top of their World Cup qualification group, Morocco only need a point against Ivory Coast on the 11th of November to ensure their trip to Russia next summer.
Since his £17m transfer from Lille during the summer of 2016, Sofiane Boufal has played 35 times for Southampton, scoring three goals and picking up just one assist.
Not the best record, but it seems he could be finally be showing a degree of consistency that was previously missing.
