Career

On 30 June 2022, Bacha joined USM Alger who signed up for two seasons coming from JS Bordj Ménaïel.^[2] On 5 February 2023, Bacha was loaned to USM Khenchela for six months, a last minute transfer which materialized during the last hours of the winter transfer window.^[3] On 15 March 2024, Bacha scored the winning goal in the derby against CR Belouizdad.^[4][5] Four days later, Bacha scored another goal against ES Setif and provided an assist for Abdoulaye Kanou after a beautiful deep pass. The match ended in a 2–0 victory.^[6] After being out of favor under previous coach Abdelhak Benchikha, Juan Carlos Garrido brought him back and was satisfied with his new role. Better yet Bacha became a regular starter often proving decisive thanks to his goals and assists.^[7]

Abderrahmane Bacha's contract has come to an end but has an amendment signed with the club's previous management, to extend his contract for two additional seasons.^[8] Finally, this amendment should not be approved by the Ligue de Football Professionnel for the simple reason that it was not filed within the time limit with this structure. “Any convention, special agreements, modification of the contract must give rise to an amendment subject to approval within fifteen days from the date of its signature”, Bacha should leave without compensation.^[8]
