MC Alger Overview

The winner will face either Zamalek or CR Belouizdad.

In search of a new challenge, the South African tactician moved from Algeria to Libya. In Tripoli, he will be in charge of an iconic club in the North African country, where he is expected to guide them back to glory. The 39-year-old tactician was in charge of MC Alger for just eight months, and in that period, he lifted the Algerian Super Cup.

The South African coach has broken his silence on the shock decision to trade Algerian giants MC Alger for Libyan side Al Ittihad. The 39-year-old tactician, who leaves his former club at the top of the table, insists that his motivations were rooted in a long-term sporting project rather than a massive payday.

The Libyan giants had expressed their interest in the South African tactician, and finally, they have landed their man. The Premier Soccer League title winner has left the Algerian side mid-season following his appointment before the current campaign began. After leaving the Algiers-based outfit, with whom he won the Algerian Super Cup, he embraces a new challenge in Libya.
