According to the same sources, the club's management is looking to finalize the deal as soon as possible to benefit from Cissé's coaching experience, especially after the achievements he made while leading the Senegal national team.

Aliou Cissé is considered one of the most prominent coaches in Africa, having led the Senegal national team to win the Africa Cup of Nations 2022, as well as reaching advanced stages in the World Cup finals.

This step comes as Cissé is close to terminating his contract with the Libyan Football Federation due to not receiving his financial dues, which opens the door for his transfer to a new club this summer.

If the deal is completed, the Union of Algiers will experience a qualitative leap in terms of coaching, given the impressive resume of the Senegalese coach.
