Madjid Bougherra, coach of the Algerian national team with whom he reached the CHAN 2022 final, has made his departure official. It's a carefully considered decision for the former center-back, who was keen to send a message to Les Verts fans before his departure.
He would now like to be able to coach a club on a daily basis."As already mentioned in the past, the desire to continue my apprenticeship as a coach would lead me to leave my position as coach of the national team of local players, with the aim of being active on a daily basis, in continuous competition," he began.
Bougherra continues: "Considering the lack of short-term deadlines, particularly in view of the postponement of the qualifiers for the African Nations Championship (CHAN 2024) announced by the Confederation of African Football a few days ago, the time has come for me to embark on a new challenge (...) It has been an honor to have spent three years coaching the national team of local players and serving my country. Three years that were full of challenges, both in terms of the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup and the 2022 African Nations Championship in Algeria, and in terms of results and emotions.
Madjid Bougherra is already rumoured to be heading for the Gulf, where he could take over the reins of a club.
