Overseas Vietnamese star worth over 330 billion VND has a chance to attend World Cup 2026

A few months ago, striker Ibrahim Maza decided to join the Algeria national team.

This means that the star born in 2005 gave up the opportunity to play for Vietnam (his mother's homeland) and Germany (where he lives) to contribute to his father's homeland (Algeria).

Initially, many people thought that this might not be a good choice for Ibrahim Maza because the German team is very strong. If he joins the German team, his chances of competing for an official position are not high.

For now, the 19-year-old prodigy has shown that his decision to play for Algeria was the right one because the country's national team is on track to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

After 6 matches in Group G of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Africa, Algeria is leading with 15 points (5 wins, 1 loss), goal difference +10 and 3 points more than second place Mozambique.

This means that Algeria has many opportunities to participate in the biggest football festival on the planet.

According to FIFA's allocation, Africa has 9 direct tickets to the 2026 World Cup finals and 1 ticket to the intercontinental play-off round. The top 9 teams in 9 groups will get direct tickets.

Currently, this Vietnamese-American star has played twice for Algeria in the match against Togo and most recently in the 5-1 victory against Mozambique.

Maza is playing for Hertha Berlin in the German second division. This season, he has played 26 matches, scored 5 goals and had 5 assists.

He is currently valued at 12 million euros (about 332 billion VND) by the transfer website Transfermarkt.
