Technical director of Stade Malherbe Caen since the club’s takeover last summer by Kylian Mbappé, Gérard Prêcheur will not survive the crisis experienced by the Normans.
Caen is getting bogged down a little further in the crisis. Gérard Prêcheur will be dismissed from his position as technical director as indicated by Le Parisien and confirmed by RMC Sport. This Saturday, the Norman club suffered a defeat (1-0) at home against Grenoble during the 18th day of Ligue 2,
A new start after the change of coach
Stade Malherbe Caen remains on five consecutive losses in all competitions, now ranking 18th in the league. At the end of December, coach Nicolas Seube, a veteran of the house, was replaced by the Portuguese Bruno Baltazar, unknown in France. Appointed last August, Prêcheur therefore did not survive the current crisis either.
Former coach of the PSG women’s team, Gérard Prêcheur arrived after the takeover of the club last summer by Kylian Mbappé via his investment fund. The 65-year-old had crossed paths with the current Real Madrid striker during his younger years at INF Clairefontaine and remained close to the player’s family.
Kylian Mbappé and Gérard Prêcheur discussed very frequently at the start of the project about the direction to take for the project. According to the entourage of several players, the former PSG women’s coach, however, had “no relationship” with the squad. “It’s a mess and no one is here to talk about it,” said an agent with RMC Sport. “It’s not being structured at the moment. To defuse, you need a sports director or someone else to make the link between players, coach and managers.”
