Zapping Foot National The Little Princes of the Rock, immersion in the AS Monaco Elite Group!
Julien Stéphan's days at the helm of Stade Rennais seem to be numbered. After an ultra-disappointing start to the season (13th after 10 days), the Breton club and its coach surely suffered one defeat too many this Sunday, November 3, on the pitch at AJ Auxerre. Swept by the promoted team (0-4) at Abbé-Deschamps, the Rouge et Noir are still marking time and seem to need a change more than ever. In this little game, and if he assures that he still has the energy to continue and redress the bar, Julien Stéphan should pay the price.
A shared experience with Massara
According to information from L'Équipe this Monday, the Rennes staff even already have an idea for a replacement. Management is reportedly considering Frenchman Rudi Garcia, free since his short experience in Naples at the start of last season. The former coach of Lille, Marseille and Lyon also has the benefit of knowing sports director Frédéric Massara well. The two men rubbed shoulders during their shared experience at AS Roma. The daily also understands that there is interest in the Croatian Igor Tudor. But the latter, known for his time on the OM bench in 2022-2023, would not be interested. Patrick Vieira and Niko Kovac, two free technicians, would also be considered.
To summarize
Stade Rennais is reportedly considering Rudi Garcia to succeed Julien Stéphan, more than ever in the hot seat after the rout at Auxerre this weekend. The former coach of Lille, Marseille and Lyon has been free since his short experience in Naples at the start of last season.
