While Stade Rennais has just formalized the arrival of Habib Beye at the head of his team, a question remained unanswered: who was going to take its place on the encrypted channel? Barely gone, the consultant and ex-coach of the Red Star has already seen his designated replacement. And it is also a former international footballer who participated in the 2002 World Cup.
Canal+ has decided to assign the chair left vacant to an ex -French international who has been working for the chain for several years. To ensure the analysis of the round of the Champions League governing final between Brest and PSG, management has bet on Sidney Govou.
Sidney Govou, a temporary solution
Accustomed to TV sets, Govou has already had the opportunity to work on the big matches in the past. His high level experience and tactical vision make it a relevant profile for this role. However, his future in the champions club show remains uncertain.

According to several sources, this is only a provisional solution. The chain is still looking to structure its team for the rest of the season. Beye's precipitous departure to Rennes took Canal+ short, and the question of his permanent successor remains unanswered.
Canal+ in search of stability after the departure of Beye
Habib Beye, in post for several years on Canal+, was an emblematic figure of Ligue 1 analyzes and European cuts. His sudden departure created a void that the chain tries to fill as well as possible.
Will Sidney Govou stay over time? Canal+ could call on other consultants or test several profiles before acting a final decision. Until then, it is he who will ensure the interim, this Tuesday for Brest-Psg.
The after-Beye is still vague, but one thing is certain: Canal+ must quickly bounce to maintain the quality of its analyzes before and after-match.
