The 2024–25 season, is Olympique Akbou's first time in the top flight of Algerian football. In addition to the domestic league, Olympique Akbou are participating in the Algerian Cup. On June 27, 2024, The federal office approved the calendar for the 2024–25 Ligue 1 season with the aim of ending on May 31, 2025. The first round is scheduled for September 14, this delay is motivated both by an extended end of the 2023–24 season but also by the holding of early presidential elections which will take place on September 7, 2024.[4] [5] However, the Ligue de Football Professionnel decided to postpone the start of the Ligue 1 by a week, on September 21.[6] On September 9, 2024, Olympique Akbou has just benefited from a new sponsor, the National Electricity and Gas Distribution Company (Sonelgaz), which will be the other sponsor for the 2024–25 season. The leaders of Olympique Akbou intend to mobilize all necessary means to succeed in meeting expectations and ensure that they find the right dynamics to achieve the set objective, especially since a difficult task is expected, particularly with tough competition in the Algerian football elite championship.[7] [8]
