Montpellier star Andy Delort ready to ditch France for Algeria

Montpellier forward Andy Delort is ready to commit his international allegiance to Algeria and start the process of obtaining the nationality of the North African country.

Delort represented France at beach football and turned out for the U20 team once, but he is now considering a decision to play for his mother’s home country.

He further proved his desire to switch allegiance to the North African nation by tweeting 'Viva Algeria' with the country's flag on Saturday.
