FC Nantes: Antoine Kombouaré on reprieve at the FCN
FC Nantes technician Antoine Kombouaré is getting closer to leaving the club following the poor results of the Canaries since the start of the season. The FCN has only recorded one victory in the last twelve matches in Ligue 1.
While FC Nantes hoped to confirm its good form after the draw (1-1) against PSG and the victory against Stade Rennais (1-0), the Canaries suffered a new setback (4-1) against Stade Brestois Sunday at the end of the 15th day of Ligue 1. According to The TeamFCN president Waldemar Kita is expected to make a final decision regarding the future of his coach in the coming weeks. The fate of Antoine Kombouaré should be sealed before January 2025.
The French sports daily takes stock of this issue and indicates that despite the crisis, Antoine Kombouaré will indeed be in charge of the Nantes team next Saturday for the 32nd final of the Coupe de France against JA Drancy. A misstep by FC Nantes against this third division club will precipitate the departure of Antoine Kombouaré.
The management of FC Nantes is targeting Sergio Conceição to replace Antoine Kombouaré. The Portuguese, who had already left a positive mark during his first stint at Nantes, could bring new impetus to the club.
