Background
On July 9, 2024 ES Setif announced in a press release that it was parting ways with its coach Ammar Souayah. Following this termination of contract, ESS sports director Abdelkarim Bira wanted to honor the Tunisian coach who took over at the head of the club last February. The next day, ES Setif signed a contract with the former coach of ES Mostaganem, Reda Bendriss. His arrival was announced a long time ago, Where Bendriss signed for two seasons. It's just a return home for the Setif native who was a player for ten years at ES Setif before spending a spell as assistant coach and then interim at the helm of ES Setif in 2021–22. On July 19, after an disagreement with the general manager Abdelkrim Bira, Malik Zorgane and Mourad Delhoum leave the administrative staff of ES Sétif. The latter have visibly given in to public pressure, which is demanding big names in this summer transfer window. All their proposals to strengthen the squad of the first team were rejected by the club's management, in particular the Nigerian attackers Tosin, Mrezigue and Ghacha. Not wanting their names to be associated with a failed casting, the two men preferred to withdraw.
