The Algerian Football Federation (FAF) has appointed three former Algerian international players to lead the national team, following the departure of Vladimir Petkovic. The decision comes a month after Petkovic’s exit, which followed a disappointing performance in the 2026 World Cup qualifying stages. The FAF revealed the new technical staff on Saturday, entrusting the future of the *équipe d’Algérie* – known as the Fennecs – to local expertise. Details of the individual roles within the new staff were not immediately disclosed in the announcement. This marks a shift in direction for Algerian football, relying on experienced Algerian players to guide the team forward. The announcement was first published on TSA. The FAF hopes this change will revitalize the national team’s performance.
