If he had only accumulated 50 minutes of play in the league before this weekend, Amoura was well and truly expected by the Brussels leaders. Bought from Lugano for 4 million Euros, the 23-year-old striker is none other than the second most expensive incoming transfer in the club’s history behind Victor Boniface (6,1 millions).
Trained in the country, in the Setif club, Amoura blazed during his last season in the local championship: 15 goals and 8 assists.
Enough to convince Lugano to invest two million to transfer him to Switzerland, in the summer of 2021. In two seasons with the Helvetians, the neo-Brussels player has built the shell of an indisputable holder and opened the doors to the competitive Algerian selection (13 caps, 4 goals).
When he joined Union Saint-Gilloise, his record with Lugano was rather flattering: 17 goals and 5 assists… including 10 goals and 4 assists last season.
The makings of the dynamiter are there. Union Saint-Gilloise and Alexander Blessin must now polish this rough diamond to get the best out of it, for the good of the player and for the good of the team.
“He will have to learn to channel his passion”, warns Anthony Moris at the microphone of Eleven/Dazn. “When he comes in for 30 minutes, you have the impression of seeing him everywhere,” he smiled following Sunday’s match, impressed by his teammate’s performance.
“He’s someone with a lot of desire, who expends a lot of energy. He needs that, he’s going to do us a lot of good. We need that for the rest of the competition,” concluded the Unionist captain.
