Julien Stéphan normally led training at Stade Rennais this Tuesday despite a still uncertain future in Brittany. There is no shortage of avenues to succeed him even if the option leading to Rudi Garcia has taken a turn for the worse. The names of Sergio Conceiçao and Habib Beye are also regularly mentioned.
The big sweep has not (yet?) taken place and doubts remain in Rennes. It's still very unclear this Tuesday at Stade Rennais while Julien Stéphan's future seemed written after the humiliation received at Auxerre (4-0) in Ligue 1.
Despite the team's thirteenth place in the championship standings after ten days, the Breton technician is still in post for the moment. Julien Stéphan normally led the first session of the week with his staff this Tuesday.

The Garcia option has gone cold
However, Rennes leaders are continuing their reflection and the search for a potential successor. Once presented as the big favorite in the event of the ousting of the first team coach, Rudi Garcia has not signed anything for the moment.
If the one who remains on a short experience in Naples seemed at the top of the list on Monday, at the initiative of sporting director Frederic Massara, the track would have cooled due to a relative interest on the part of the former Lille coach, Marseille and Lyon. Thus confirming the information from Daniel Riolo in the show l’After Foot on RMC from Monday.
Beye and Conceiçao tracked but…
The name of Habib Beye is now coming up more and more as well as that of Sergio Conceiçao. Without a club since his departure from Red Star during the off-season, the Frenchman has never hidden his ambition to coach in Ligue 1. Regularly cited on an elite bench in recent months, the former Senegalese full-back would finally have his lucky if the management of Rennes decides to entrust him with the reins of the team for the post-Stéphan era.
As for Sergio Conceiçao, in addition to his time in Nantes in 2016-2017, the Portuguese's file has a downside. Free since the end of last season after his departure from Porto, the 49-year-old coach is a financially complicated option due to a significant salary for him and his numerous staff.
