Season summary

Achour Djelloul spoke on Channel 3, made some revelations about recruitment and departures. While affirming that USM Alger will play the leading roles next season, Djelloul reveals that Denis Lavagne will be the new coach of Soustara's.^[8] also said that he would like to keep Mounir Zeghdoud with the team as an assistant, while Mohamed Lamine Zemmamouche who is at the end of his career, said we will prepare him to be a goalkeeper coach in the future. Returning to Antar Yahia case, it is first and foremost the relationship between an employer and an employee. Add to that Yahia was punished twice by the Disciplinary Committee, and for this we preferred to separate ourselves from this employee.^[8] The club's first deals were goalkeeper Oussama Benbot then contracted with ES Sétif duo Messala Merbah and Ibrahim Bekakchi, The fourth deal was the former player Abderrahmane Meziane coming from Espérance de Tunis and after great negotiations about the salary, they agreed for 260 million per month for two seasons.^[9]

On 1 September, USM Alger signed with the former player Hocine Achiou to be the new sporting director and Azzedine Rahim was appointed as assistant to Lavagne and Lounès Gaouaoui as goalkeepers coach.^[10]^[11] On 10 September, Saadi Yacef passed away at the age of 93, who was one of the leaders of Algeria's National Liberation Front during his country's war of independence, president of the club in the seventies and honorary president.^[12]^[13] On 14 September, team captain Mohamed Lamine Zemmamouche renewed his contract for two seasons and is considered the most player who played in the history of the club, with 400 games in sixteen seasons, and stated that he wanted to retire here.^[14] The first preparatory will be in Mostaganem for a ten-day internship like last season from September 19 to 28, is a very important step in the preparation for the offseason and include two friendly matches.^[15] On 18 October, Pr. Riyad Mehiaoui, member of the scientific committee monitoring the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria, said his organization was in favor of the return of supporters to the stadiums, 19 months after their absence.^[16] On 20 October, Hocine Achiou sighed with relief after Mazire Soula finally terminated his contract with USMA. Since the squad has 27 players, management can qualify all new recruits the Franco-Algerian striker refused to leave. After several rounds of negotiation, Achiou and the player failed to agree on an amicable separation. The latter demanded first, compensation that covers the remainder of his lease, which expires on September 28, 2023, in order to sign the termination of his contract.^[17]

Denis Lavagne stated that he has 40 years in the world of professionalism, but he has never seen a club start preparations and recruitment with a sports director who does not have a contract (Tewfik Korichi), to leave after one month to appoint another person in his place (Hocine Achiou), who does not have any experience or competence because he does not have any certificate or qualifications He came to revolutionize the team, touching everything, thinking that he knows everything about football.

— Denis Lavagne a statement after leaving the club.^[18]

On October 23, USM Alger opened the season against NA Hussein Dey outside the home and tied 1–1. USMA opened the scoring through Abderrahim Hamra in the 42nd minute, and before that Ismail Belkacemi missed a penalty kick.^[19] On the 30th of the same month, in the first match at Omar Hamadi Stadium, the fans of Ouled EL Bahdja raised a banner to honor Saadi Yacef, who died about two months ago. USM Alger achieved a great victory against RC Arbaâ by four goals scored by Belkacemi, Mahious, Zouari and Belaïd. The visiting team played with a squad of reserve players, which Hocine Achiou did not like it. On November 20, against the leader US Biskra they won by three including a brace from Benhammouda, US Biskra was forced to play with the reserve team due to the Players protested for not receiving their dues. On November 16, Soolking feat Rim'K released a song Her name is Lela, some of which were filmed at Omar Hamadi Stadium with the supporters of USM Alger, Soolking is known as a big fan of The Reds and Blacks. On November 28, the medical staff announced the end of the season for Hamza Koudri, after the injury he received against US Biskra with a twisting of the left knee and a rupture of the cruciate ligament.^[20] Before the MC Oran match, Ouled EL Bahdja decided to raise a banner in support of Koudri, but the club's management prevented them and according to the group it was Achiou who refused, and after stumbling against them, USM Alger decided to terminate the contract with Denis Lavagne due to poor results.^[4] Achiou stated that they will not rush to sign a new coach, who should be worthy of the club's philosophy, Lavagne asked for 198,000 euros after unilateral termination of the contract or to go to FIFA. On December 26, left-back Mehdi Beneddine moved to LB Châteauroux on a six months loan. After winning against Paradou AC, interim coach Azzedine Rahim stated that he does not want to burn the stages and in order to be a head coach you must go through several stages.

On February 6, 2022, the former player in the seventies and eighties Abdelmalek Ali Messaoud died at the age of 66 due to complications from the COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria, and in his career with USM Alger, Ali Messaoud won the Algerian Cup title in 1981 and with the national team two gold medals for the Mediterranean Games in 1975 and the African Games in 1978.^[21]^[22] After the end of the first stage led by a temporary coach for more than a month, USM Alger contracted with Serbian Zlatko Krmpotić with Moroccan assistant Djamil Ben Ouahi, Krmpotić who has coached several clubs in Africa, will sign a 6-month contract and could be renewed in the event of a place in the league standings at the end of the season.^[6] On March 5, in a match against JS Saoura, USM Alger stumbled in a goalless draw and the match witnessed the cancellation of a goal for Al-Ittihad due to the offside situation, and with the replay it was found that the goal was correct, the sports director stated that he will not turn his back on the team and will play for the title, and that there are people within the team as if we were playing for the fall and not in third place, Mustapha Ghorbal who managed a fateful match in Saudi Arabia is not the same as the one who managed our match. After a series of negative results and seven consecutive matches without a win, On April 15, USM Alger decided to terminate the services of sports director Hocine Achiou, Asked on national radio about a possible withdrawal from Groupe SERPORT, Achour Djelloul assured that the public company had no intention of separating from USM Alger.^[23] Three days after the defeat against MC Oran, Krmpotić was dismissed from his position and USM Alger decided to rely on his assistant Jamil Benouahi to complete the season.^[7]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
There was no place for eternity to exist, life begins with a cry and ends with a stroke and the interval between the beginning and the end is a life in which we write what is mentioned about us after death. And you Billel have written with your morals, your humility and your pure spirit what makes your memory immortal in hearts. Every time we want to wake up from the tragedy that befell us, but sadness sends us back to the folds of nostalgia we remember you and our hearts sweeten with what we entrusted about you.
Billel today it is not only Benhammouda family who mourns you and not only USM Alger, but all Algeria will miss you, only in body but you will remain the greatest present in hearts and permanent in minds and you will continue to have an eternal share of prayers. Dear late we do not want the lament to end with a farewell word, we will say to the meeting in the paradise of eternity.

الى الملتقى يا بلال ؛ انا لله وانا اليه راجعون

— Condolence of Secretary General of Union Sportive Médina d'Alger about the death of Billel Benhammouda.^[24]

Djelloul said that Réda Abdouche will be with the club next season and his role will be administrative and technical, and that they officially requested to take advantage of Baraki Stadium and that Groupe SERPORT is ready to carry out the remaining works in order to receive it as soon as possible, because Omar Hamadi Stadium has become a danger to the supporters.^[25] days later Djelloul was dismissed from his post after the scandal of the exit of containers of Hyundai cars imported by the Tahkout company in 2019, and was replaced by the former CEO of l’entreprise portuaire d’annaba (EPAN) Abdelkarim Harkati temporarily.^[1]^[2] USM Alger achieved their first victory after two months against WA Tlemcen, then in the Algiers Derby they achieved an important and unexpected victory that allowed them to search for a continental participation, and after achieving the fifth victory in a row against Olympique de Médéa Jamil Benouahi stated that he wishes to stay in the club and that he became a fan of the team.
