MC El Bayadh come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and ASO Chlef did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

One of our own: Nabil Mrezigue joins the ASO Chlef first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Nabil Mrezigue is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Ismail Ounas steps up from the ASO Chlef academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ismail Ounas has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

A row about effort at ASO Chlef
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Moslem Anatouf was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The formation has left Moslem Anatouf behind
Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. ASO Chlef will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.
