League season
Ligue Professionnelle 1
On June 27, 2024, The federal office approved the calendar for the 2024–25 Ligue 1 season with the aim of ending on May 31, 2025. The first round is scheduled for September 14, this delay is motivated both by an extended end of the 2023–24 season but also by the holding of early presidential elections which will take place on September 7, 2024.[ 3] [ 4] However, the Ligue de Football Professionnel decided to postpone the start of the Ligue 1 by a week, on September 21.[ 5] Following urgent requests from certain clubs, the Algerian Football Federation has decided to increase the number of foreign players in the Ligue 1 .[ 6] After having formally passed through the technical college chaired by Rabah Saâdane , the FAF ratified the increase in the number of foreigners per club from 3 to 5. However, that there is a provision intended to serve as a safeguard for the license of a foreign player or coach to be validated, the club must pay the federation a deposit equivalent to 12 months salary.[ 6] This is to protect against any financial dispute.[ 6]
The Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1 will see the introduction of Video assistant referee this season. VAR will be used from the first round of the Ligue 1. The VAR will not be able to be used for all matches because several stadiums do not meet standards, making it impossible to install the necessary equipment. The FAF received the first fully equipped stations, in accordance with an agreement duly signed with the Portuguese company Medialuso, following a call for tenders for a rental. The rest of the equipment should be received. In addition to the equipment, the Portuguese company has also sent five technicians who will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the devices.[ 7] [ 8]
