If the Kita family seems to support Antoine Kombouaré despite the disastrous results of FC Nantes, the name of Habib Beye comes up insistently in the mouths of certain observers.
Will Antoine Kombouaré spend the winter on the FC Nantes bench? As a perilous trip to Paris looms this Saturday (9 p.m.), to face PSG at the Parc des Princes, the Canaris coach no longer has the wind in his sails and has even just suffered a fourth defeat in a row , yesterday, against Le Havre (0-2) which weakens him even more in his position. In the recent past, several coaches in difficulty at FC Nantes did not have time to spend the fall or winter, from Miguel Cardoso (2018) to Pierre Aristouy (2023) via Christian Gourcuff ( 2020).
Nantes, the right club for Beye?
According to the sports daily, L'Équipe, the Kita family would at this time maintain confidence in Kombouaré despite the beginning of questions linked to the transfer window, which will open its doors after three more days of Ligue 1. In the meantime, the name of Habib Beye, a former footballer who became a coach and consultant (for the Canal + channel), comes up repeatedly in the mouths of certain observers. Walid Acherchour (DAZN) even recently posted a message on X sending the former Red Star coach to the bench of the Nantes Football Club. With a few arguments: “What if FC Nantes was not the right club to start Habib Beye in Ligue 1? Not a club too high, not a club too low, a club with a history linked to the game, young people who have shone at the bottom, a solid player base to resuscitate. A goal to maintain achievable…”
Between a message about X and reality, there is logically a big difference. And before knowing if Beye, or another technician takes his place on the Canaries bench, the main question remains: does Waldemar Kita still have confidence in Antoine Kombouaré? The next few days, and matches, will allow us to answer them.
