Ndiaye agrees with the USMA administration

Senegalese coach Lamine Ndiaye has given his approval to coach the first football team of USM Algiers until the current season.

The newspaper “Competition” revealed that Ndiaye will join the capital, Thursday, in order to demarcate his membership in the Federation after the completion of negotiations with the General Director of Sports, Said Alaik.

Aleeq revealed earlier his agreement with coach Miloud Hamdi, who previously supervised the team during two periods (2015-2016 and 2017-2018).

Hamdi succeeded in leading Al-Ittihad to win the first professional league championship in the first season.

It appears that the dispute between Aleeq and the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Bilal Naywa, prevented the deal from being concluded, as the first official appointed by the company that owns the club, “Port Services Complex,” opposes the return of Hamdi.
