Regis le Bris - confirmed


Be interesting to see what accompanies his announcement regarding staff

As I know nothing about the bloke I suppose we have to wait to see what we do in the transfer window to determine how determined we are to challenge for promotion

Will also be interesting to find out if we pay compensation for him.

He’s under contract at Lorient until 2027 - but has obviously just overseen a relegation, and the French media seemed to have him pencilled in for “showdown” talks with the owner, ahead of possibly getting sacked.

Likely some deal been done, whereby they get no compo from us, but we take over his contract leaving Lorient without an obligation to pay his contract up. Would make financial sense for all parties.
 
Lorient Fan Perspective...
"Q: Why did things fall apart last season, ending in relegation?

A: During the 2023/2024 transfer window, he asked to leave because he disagreed with the president but he was forced to stay. The transfer window was unsuccessful with big egos joining the club (Benjamin Mendy, Tiemoue Bakayoko) and he got angry with his group. He chose to switch to a 3-man defence but it never worked. I think he lacks experience and has had difficulty recognizing his mistakes..."
