MO Béjaïa, an Algerian football team, returned to Algeria on Thursday morning after completing a 13-day training camp in Aïn Draham, Tunisia. The team played five friendly matches during their stay, with their final match against ASAM ending in a 2-0 victory on Wednesday morning. This match provided valuable playing time for the players to showcase their skills and potentially secure a spot in the team's lineup for their upcoming Ligue 2 Mobilis match against ASK on August 24.
Throughout their training camp in Tunisia, MO Béjaïa achieved impressive results, winning four out of their five friendly matches. The team secured victories against Ahly Benghazi (2-1), ES Khmiriene Ain Drahem (7-0), ASO Chlef (2-0), and ASAM (2-0). Their only loss was against US Biskra, with a score of 2-1. Although these matches were only friendlies, the team's performance demonstrated significant improvement in cohesion and teamwork, particularly with the integration of 13 new players.
The training camp focused on building team cohesion, which improved significantly over the 13-day period. The team's coach played a crucial role in achieving this goal, with the support of experienced players like Bouledieb. The coach's strategy and the players' dedication contributed to a more unified team, which will be essential for their upcoming Ligue 2 Mobilis match against ASK.
Upon their return to Béjaïa, the team was greeted on Thursday morning, and the players rejoined their families to celebrate the upcoming Eid festival. The team is scheduled to resume training on Tuesday at 7 pm at the Unité maghrébine stadium. This break will allow the players to recharge before focusing on their next match.
However, the team's management is facing a crisis, as President Akli Adrar announced his resignation due to feeling isolated and unsupported in his work. Adrar cited the heavy workload and financial constraints as contributing factors to his decision. The players' demands for payment upon their return added to the pressure.
The decision to resign was sparked by the president of the CSA's announcement that only 60% of the subsidy would be allocated to the team, leaving 40% for youth category management. Adrar was dissatisfied with this allocation, given the team's financial struggles. Fans hope that this resignation was an emotional reaction and that the situation will be resolved in the coming hours.
The team's supporters are optimistic that the crisis will be resolved, and the team will regain its stability to continue their preparations for the upcoming championship. The fans' hopes are pinned on a swift resolution to the management crisis, allowing the team to focus on their Ligue 2 Mobilis match against ASK on August 24.
