The news will surprise no one. However, it is official. Yannick Cahuzac is no longer the coach of RC Lens. Inducted as number 1 after the dismissal of Dino Toppmöller in mid-September, the 41-year-old Corsican technician will have spent only nine matches at the head of the Sang et Or, who have just experienced a nightmarish week. Beaten in Lille in the derby (1-0), they exploded against Como (1-9) in the Champions League before losing on the wire but logically against OM (1-2). Assessment? Three wins, six defeats and 22 goals conceded in nine games under Cahuzac.
“Called to ensure this responsibility without a predefined deadline, Yannick Cahuzac supported the professional group during a transition period during which he put all his energy and commitment at the service of Racing,” we specify in a press release. The Club thanks its former captain and coach for his investment and the work accomplished, and wishes him every success in continuing his professional career.”
