The shape of him
Houssem Aouar is a 28-year-old forward at Al-Ittihad FC and a Algeria international. A forward is measured in end product: the movement that finds space, the finish that decides it, and the threat that pins defenders back.
The job
Stretch the defence, take the chances that come, and lead the press from the front.
