Victor Zvunka has officially stepped down as head coach of CR Belouizdad, with his resignation accepted by club president Réda Malek earlier this week. The French coach, who had joined the club at the start of the season with hopes of leading it to the top of the Algerian Ligue 1, fell short of expectations.
Current Situation:
CRB sits in 15th place, dangerously close to relegation territory in the league table.
Zvunka’s departure comes as the club searches for stability and a new direction.
New Leadership:
The club has opted for an internal solution, placing Hocine Yahi in charge of the first team.
Yahi, who was Zvunka’s assistant, will be supported by coaching staff members Boudjalti and Bourzag.
Club president Réda Malek met with the coaching staff before confirming this decision.
Upcoming Fixture:
Hocine Yahi’s debut as interim head coach will come this Saturday, as CRB hosts MO Béjaïa on matchday 8 of the Algerian Ligue 1.
CR Belouizdad narrowly escaped relegation last season, and with results slipping again, all eyes are now on Yahi to stabilize the team and avoid another crisis.
