While FC Nantes is getting bogged down in a situation that is becoming worrying, the question of the future of the coach, Antoine Kombouaré, is seriously beginning to arise. But will Waldemar Kita even agree to take out the checkbook?
After separating, with losses and uproar, at the end of the 2023 season, will Antoine Kombouaré and Waldemar Kita organize their divorce again? This is the question that is becoming more and more recurring at FC Nantes. The Canaries are on a black streak of seven games without the slightest victory. The descent in the rankings is scary and managers could be tempted by a “strong” reaction such as a change of coach. The problem is the cost of such an operation…
A check for 2 million euros, minimum
To part ways with Antoine Kombouaré before the end of the year, that's an amount of two million euros to go out. The FC Nantes coach has a contract until June 2026, Waldemar Kita will not be able to avoid paying the last 18 months of his lease… Added to this is the cost of Kombouaré's staff, which is tough note again. Does the Nantes boss still have to be ready to give in?
Financial difficulties?
In recent months, rumors have reported financial difficulties at FC Nantes. If Waldemar Kita never confirmed this, it would not be surprising to see the FCN in tough economic times after the drop in TV rights and the poor results over the past two years. Not sure that the boss will agree to take money out of his pocket once again…
