The JS Kabylie Chronicle
Boardroom7 Sep 2026
Deadline passes with 13 signed and 1 gone
That is the business done at JS Kabylie until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.

Karim Laloufi asks to leave JS Kabylie
“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Youcef Izem is a better footballer than he was
Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 19 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Zamalek tell JS Kabylie: Khama Erasmus is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

A falling-out at JS Kabylie

Words at JS Kabylie training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jaredi Teixeira is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

No investment in the facilities at JS Kabylie
Nothing about this will be in a press release. A plan went upstairs, came back rejected, and the version of the club that would have existed in three years' time just quietly stopped being possible.
Squad7 Sep 2026
JS Kabylie have started building around Arthur Bada
He used to be one of the options. He is now one of the men the options are picked around, and the change happened quietly enough that only the dressing room noticed on the day.
Market7 Sep 2026
Window shut, Oualid Malki still here
JS Kabylie spent the window trying to move Oualid Malki on and nobody came. He trains with a squad that has already told him he is not part of it, and both sides now wait for the next one.
In brief
- Market JS Kabylie put Fethi Kessassi up for sale
