The Dispute Resolution Chamber passed a decision on November 15, 2023 regarding an employment-related dispute between player Semir Smajlagic and JS Kabylie. The player claimed that he and the club had agreed on an employment contract from January 20, 2023 to December 31, 2024, with a monthly gross salary of DZD 3,373,429.25 convertible to EUR 15,000 net and a sign-on bonus of EUR 10,000. The player provided an unsigned copy of the contract (Version 1) and another contract (Version 2) with the same terms, but with a different signature field. Version 2 also included a clause stating that disputes would be resolved amicably or submitted to the Algerian NDRC. A third contract (Version 3) was available in the Transfer Matching System with a different validity period.
