Raouraoua likely to head Algeria’s FAF
Mohamed Raouraoua
Deadline to submit application for the Algerian Football Federation (FAF) elections expired on Sunday leaving more chances for Mohamed Raouraoua to be the FAF’s president.

The elections will be held on February 16 while the leader of Biskra’s League Abdelkader Chaabani withdrew from the race in the last minute.
-
Sources say he was convinced that he had little chances compared to Raouraoua who is strongly backed by his supporters.
-
Previously, manager of Chlef football team Abdelkarim Medouar had urged Chaabani to not apply for the FAF elections.

“The announcement of Raouaraoua to take part in the race has resolved the electoral process before its time,” he had said in a radio programme.
