[edit] Club career
Bouazza earned a scholarship at Watford and had been in and out of the first team, scoring - in two seasons - two goals in thirty-seven games.
During the 2005–06 season Bouazza was overshadowed by Darius Henderson, Marlon King, and Ashley Young and missed a lengthy spell with a broken metatarsal but this didn't prevent him scoring three goals in nineteen games, one of which was the fourth in Watford's 4–1 win over Championship runners-Up Sheffield United.
Bouazza was loaned out to Swindon Town for part of the season, where he scored two goals in eleven games. He was a regular on the Watford substitute bench, but throughout the 2006–07 season he started most of the games, principally as a left-sided winger.
On 8 August 2007, Bouazza joined Fulham, on a four-year deal, for an initial fee of £3m, which could rise to £4m, depending on appearances, and Fulham's divisional status.
Hameur started out the season strongly making 3 appearances before he dislocated his shoulder. He returned after a few weeks into the Fulham starting eleven. He scored his first Fulham goal with a close-range free kick against Man City in a 3–3 draw at Craven Cottage on 22 September 2007.[1][2]
On 9 August 2008 he signed for Charlton Athletic on a season-long loan.[3] On 8 January 2009 Fulham activated a recall clause in the loan agreement and immediately loaned him to Birmingham City for the remainder of the season.[4][5] Bouazza made his Birmingham debut in their next league game, a 1–1 draw at home to Cardiff City,[6] and scored his first goal, a clever finish after a defensive error, in the 2–0 win away to Doncaster Rovers in March.[7]
[edit] International career
Bouazza made his debut against Libya on February 7, 2007. Bouazza scored his first goal for Algeria in a 3-2 victory over Mali on the November 20, 2007.
