Patrice Beaumelle Pens Deal With Algeria’s MC Alger

The 44-year-old former coach of Côte d’Ivoire manager between 2020-2022, is a journeyman having worked in most parts of Africa, in particular, in a role of assistant coach. The new parton of the Green and Red half of Algeria assisted his compatriot Hervé Renard during his various journeys on the continent.
