Bouazza has been in good form for Watford this season

Watford striker Hameur Bouazza has been called up by Algeria for their friendly against Burkina Faso in France on Wednesday.

The French-born 21-year-old, however, has told the Algerian Football Federation he has yet to decide on his international future.

There is a first call-up for another French-born player, defender Halim Medaci from Ligue 2 club Le Havre, and the Dutch-born Karim Bridji from Heracles Almelo.

Returning to the squad is Nice defender Anthar Yahia, who missed Algeria's win over the Gambia in their African Nations Cup qualifier last month because of suspension.

Algeria play the Burkinabe at Luynes near Aix en Provence.
