The Algerian Football Federation revealed the identity of the new coach who will lead "Les Verts," replacing Swiss coach Vladimir Petković, in accordance with established procedures.
Former Algerian star Ibrahim Hamdani, who recently won the gold medal at the Mediterranean Games with the Algeria U-21 team, was chosen to coach the senior squad, with former star Antar Yahia appointed as his assistant.
The newspaper "El Nahaar" reported details of today's Saturday meeting of the Algerian Football Federation, which also resulted in appointing Moussa Saïb as the general manager of the senior national football team and Hussein Laaribi as coach of the Algeria U-20 team.
