Without success since August, FC Nantes is suffering in Ligue 1. A dynamic which weakens Antoine Kombouaré. The Kanak coach is also at odds with his president. Enough to announce an imminent dismissal.
The years follow one another and are similar for FC Nantes in Ligue 1. Like every year or almost for the past 5 years, the Canaries will undoubtedly suffer to maintain their place in the elite. After an encouraging month of August, Nantes is already in the tough in the rankings. With 8 games without a win including 3 defeats in a row, the FCN is 14th with the same number of points as the play-off Saint-Etienne. His trainer Antoine Kombouaré is logically threatened in a club which is not very patient with its coaches. The situation is even more critical than ever for the Kanak.
Kombouaré and Kita no longer speak to each other
Indeed, according to The Sports Dailythe relationship between Antoine Kombouaré and his president Waldemar Kita is frosty. The two men no longer speak to each other and above all they blame each other for many things. The coach did not digest the last summer transfer window, in terms of departures and arrivals. The recruits are disappointing and the management of the Mostafa Mohamed case has been chaotic. On the presidential side, Kombouaré's tactical reluctance is singled out to explain Nantes' poor results.
A dismissal is therefore more relevant than ever in Loire-Atlantique. To replace Antoine Kombouaré, the name of a certain Habib Beye has already been mentioned in the local press. Looking for a Ligue 1 club since his departure from Red Star this summer, the Canal+ consultant will have difficulty refusing such an opportunity. One thing is certain. If Nantes fails to beat Le Havre (17th) in the next match, the coaching position will be vacant.
