Probable future coach of Stade Rennais, Jorge Sampaoli should sign up at the start of next week. His arrival in Brittany was not planned this weekend. But the Argentine coach disrupted his schedule to arrive earlier than expected. His presence in the stands for the match against Toulouse on Sunday cannot be ruled out.
Unless there is a change in the situation, Jorge Sampaoli will indeed be the next coach of Stade Rennais. The Argentinian will surely succeed Julien Stéphan whose dismissal was made official on Thursday. Given the timing, the former coach of Olympique de Marseille will not have time to take charge before the reception of Toulouse on Sunday during the 11th day of Ligue 1.
Sampaoli present from Sunday
His official signing should only take place at the beginning of next week, time for him to arrive from Brazil. But we have to believe that Jorge Sampaoli is eager to discover his future club. According to the journalist of Parisian Benjamin Quarez, the technician will finally land in Brittany earlier than expected. The disciple of Marcelo Bielsa plans to take a plane during the night of this Saturday to Sunday. This disrupted schedule could allow him to sit in the stands at Roazhon Park to watch the match against Téfécé on Sunday at 5 p.m.
Suffice it to say that the cameras would be particularly attracted to the Argentinian and his reactions to the actions of his new team. Remember that before his appointment, it is the reserve coach Sébastien Tambouret who will lead the Rouge et Noir, with the help of his assistant Pierre-Alexandre Lelièvre and the director of the training center Denis Arnaud. All these little people will then give way to a new staff in which we could find Samir Nasri. Even if we do not know who made the phone call, the Canal+ consultant was contacted to support Jorge Sampaoli in Rennes.
