Vahid Halilhodzic, the current coach of the Algerian national team, has been rumored to be in talks with Olympique de Marseille (OM), leading to speculation about his potential move to the club. However, Halilhodzic has denied these rumors, stating that he is focused on preparing for the upcoming World Cup with Algeria.
Despite the rumors, Halilhodzic clarified that he has not been negotiating with OM officials and is committed to his role with the Algerian national team. He emphasized that his priority is the World Cup, and he has been dedicating his time to preparing the team for the tournament.
Halilhodzic’s contract with Algeria is set to end in July, coinciding with the upcoming African Cup of Nations (CAN) scheduled to take place in Morocco. While the CAN 2015 is a significant objective for the Algerian Football Federation (FAF), Halilhodzic has not yet extended his contract with the Fennecs, leading to speculation about his future beyond the World Cup.
