The statement further added, “The committee will present the study results within a period not exceeding ten days.”

Following Algeria’s early exit from the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, the Algerian Football Federation severed ties with coach Djamel Belmadi.

The decision prompted the initiation of a thorough selection process to identify the next coach who will lead the Algerian national team.
