Managerial career

[edit]

Immediately after his retirement from football, Billel Dziri entered the field of coaching and his beginning in formation was with USM Alger, and his first official assignment was in 2011, after Hervé Renard went and only for two matches, after which he continued to work as an assistant coach in USM Alger and NA Hussein Dey, and in 2015 the same thing was repeated after the dismissal of Hubert Velud where he led USMA temporarily and for only three matches. On 10 June 2015 Dziri was appointed coach of RC Arbaâ in his first experience as head coach.[8] but it did not last long and after three consecutive defeats in the Ligue 1 he was dismissed from his position.[9] A year after that, Dziri spent with WA Boufarik in the Ligue 2 and did not achieve good results and was satisfied with only four victories and was sacked on 2 April, and at the end of the season WA Boufarik fell to Third division. On 11 November 2017 Billel Dziri was appointed coach of NA Hussein Dey to succeed Nabil Neghiz who moved to Saudi Arabia, where he achieved positive results and led him to end the season in the podium and a run of 22 matches unbeaten, ensure participation in the CAF Confederation Cup. On 4 November 2018 the two sides agreed to a friendly separation and his last match was against Olympique de Médéa.[10] On 6 November 2018 Dziri was appointed coach of CA Bordj Bou Arreridj succeeding the Spaniard Josep María Nogués until the end of the season and the goal is to play for maintenance.[11][12]

On 24 June 2019 USM Alger signed with Billel Dziri to be the new coach, the former USM Alger star gave him the power to choose the staff to work with them, Dziri hopes that the club's financial situation will soon be resolved after the latest problems with the Algerian justice of its owner Ali Haddad.[13] On 26 February 2020 USM Alger announced that it had reached an amicable separation agreement with Dziri, after his insistence on leaving his post, Dziri's departure comes two days after USMA lost in the Algiers Derby, he stated that the team had suffered a lot because of the financial crisis, but after it became close to owning the majority of its shares Groupe SERPORT and to get out of this crisis, it is time to go comfortably on the future of USM Alger.[14] Only a week after his departure Dziri returned to CA Bordj Bou Arreridj.[15] but due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria, the 2019–20 sports season was cancelled.[16] On 9 January 2021 Dziri decided to throw in the towel after his team's heavy defeat in the derby against ES Setif. CA Bordj Bou Arreridj has achieved only two points since the beginning of the season.[17] On 18 January 2021 Billel Dziri returned to NA Hussein Dey to succeed Nabil Leknaoui "I have given my consent in principle to the leadership of NA Hussein Dey," Dziri told Algeria Press Service. "There are still some details to be ironed out before my commitment is formalized. It is on the right track".[18] Only four months later Dziri left his post after agreeing with the management of NA Hussein Dey, les Sang et Or have not won any of the last six meetings.[19]
