On April 24, 2024, it was announced that the organizing committee of the competition had sanctioned USM Alger by forfeiting it with a 3–0 defeat for the first leg. Despite the lingering crisis due to the first leg, USM Alger traveled to Morocco on April 26. During the technical meeting before the match RS Berkane indicated that she planned to wear the set of jerseys flocked with the map of Morocco with Western Sahara. USM Alger refused to play the match and the officials waited a quarter of an hour before realizing that one of the two teams had not left the locker room. On May 2, Confederation of African Football designated RS Berkane as finalist of the CAF Confederation Cup and declared to transmit the file to the disciplinary committee for possible other sanctions against the Algerian Football Federation.
On May 2, 2024, the Court of Arbitration for Sport announced that it had rejected the request for interim relief to suspend the decision of the CAF appeal jury which validated the use of the RS Berkane jersey, in the absence of a response from of the Confederation of African Football. However, the case remains open on the merits and the court is in the process of collecting the elements of each party. On May 10, the Lausanne court once again rejected a request from USM Alger to suspend the Confederation Cup final, pending the conclusion of arbitration proceedings with CAF in the RS Berkane affair. On November 13, 2024, the CAS heard the various parties in the so-called jerseys case, namely USM Alger and FAF on one side and RS Berkane, FRMF and CAF on the other. The Spanish judge investigating the case listened to the arguments of the various parties via the Zoom application, the hearing lasted three hours. In the end, the CAS judge left the case under advisement.
On February 26, 2025 The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has admitted the appeal of the FAF against the CAF, the FRMF and RS Berkane concerning the validation of the RS Berkane jerseys on which appears a map of Morocco including Western Sahara. The CAS Panel has concluded that RS Berkane jerseys for the 2023–24 CAF Confederation Cup, insofar as they depict a territorial map including an image of a political nature, were contrary to CAF regulations. CAF's decision to maintain the approval of the jerseys is thus annulled and the FAF's appeal is allowed. This decision has no effect on the results of the 2023–24 CAF Confederation Cup. This document is an unofficial summary for the media. With the agreement of the Parties, the CAS award will be published in French on the website in due course.
