Algeria coach Djamel Belmadi isn't surprised by the success of Islam Slimani at AS Monaco.
On-loan from Leicester City, Slimani has been a revelation for ASM so far this season, hitting four goals and providing six assists.
"Slimani is walking on the water, doing exceptional things in a moribund team," declared Belmadi, a former Manchester City and Marseille player.
"This is the bet of a coach who knew him. He is number 1 in the middle of stars.
"I am not surprised, with his mentality he will go for the record of (Abdelhafid) Tasfaout."
