This part is not a joke
Choucha — also written Chouchaa or Shosha, widely reported as Zaki Khellaf — is an amateur footballer from Oum El Bouaghi, eastern Algeria. No club. No sponsor. No contract. Just neighbourhood cage tournaments.
He has a disability, and it has never been the point of the story. The point is that when he gets the ball, a whole town stops to watch. Keepers let him score. Men climb onto roofs for a better angle.
Everyone else plays for the season. He plays because it's Tuesday.
The rest of this website is a joke. This bit isn't: he's the best argument going that football belongs to whoever loves it most, not whoever is paid most.
No. He has no idea it exists and receives nothing from it. He's playing football. Unofficial fan tribute, made by people who think he's the best thing in the sport.
No. This is a website with a man doing a forward roll on it. Memecoins routinely go to zero.
None. There isn't one for a football either, and it's still the most important object on the pitch.
After the match. Always after the match.
Not until the contract address is on this page. If someone DMs you a "$CHOUCHA" address, it is not from us.
Go follow him. He earned it long before we did.
