Ittihad Touarga Sports Director: "I Stand with the Coach and Resign Today... This is an Outrage"

Adel El Metni, Ittihad Touarga's Sports Director, along with team coach Abdelwahed Zamrat, submitted their resignations immediately after the 2-1 defeat to Renaissance Zemamra in the eighth round of the Botola Pro "Inwi" league.

The match was marked by dramatic events, including the expulsion of both Ittihad Touarga goalkeepers. This forced defender Youssef Qajjaï to step in as goalkeeper, where he notably saved a penalty kick taken by Renaissance Zemamra.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, El Metni stated: "As the club's Sports Director, I stand in solidarity with the coach, and I submit my resignation today directly before you, because what we are experiencing this season leaves us no choice but to say, 'Oh God, this is an outrage.'"

He concluded by announcing: "Coach Zamrat and I are officially submitting our resignations."
