Algeria is preparing to participate in the Mediterranean Games in Taranto, Italy, from August 21 to September 3, 2026. The delegation is record-breaking, comprising around 420 members, including approximately 290 to 300 athletes—making it the second-largest team after the host country. However, the women's football team withdrew following a decision by the Ministry of Sports, which resulted in a fine of 3,000 euros and upset the organizing committee, who refused to approve some officials and coaches due to missed registration deadlines, particularly coach Nourddine Zian. Algeria is one of the few countries expected to send a large contingent, with high hopes placed on its stars to boost its international standing during these games—an important opportunity to test athletes' readiness for upcoming global competitions.
