BY: Dr. Hana Saada

Algiers, Algeria | February 25th, 2025 — In a decisive show of confidence, Walid Sadi has been re-elected as President of the Algerian Football Federation (FAF) for the 2025-2029 Olympic mandate. The electoral process took place during an Extraordinary General Assembly held at the National Army Club in Algiers, where Sadi, running unopposed, secured an overwhelming victory with 78 out of 80 votes from the delegates present.

 

The re-elected president, aged 45, will continue leading the federation with a newly approved executive committee comprising 12 members, including two vice-presidents and five substitutes. The election was conducted under the strict supervision of FIFA and CAF representatives, ensuring full compliance with international governance standards.

Sadi’s continuation at the helm of Algerian football marks a period of institutional stability, following his initial appointment in September 2023 after the resignation of Djahid Zefizef. His leadership has already received broad validation, as evidenced by the unanimous approval of the FAF’s moral and financial reports in early February 2024.

With this resounding mandate, Sadi is now tasked with steering Algerian football into a new era of growth and reform. His tenure will focus on enhancing national league structures, developing grassroots football, strengthening international partnerships, and positioning Algeria as a formidable force in African and global football.
