In crisis on a sporting level, FC Nantes will end the season with another coach.
This is information that has the effect of a little bombshell, as it still seemed unimaginable a few months ago: Antoine Kombouaré should return to the FC Nantes bench. According to information from L’Equipe, Waldemar Kita has chosen to recall the Kanak technician to finish this 2023-24 season.
Arriving during the season to take the place of Pierre Aristouy, Jocelyn Gourvennec leaves the yellow house after only a few months in his role as FCN coach. Despite an encouraging start, the Breton did not manage to maintain good momentum over time. The trajectory of FC Nantes is worrying, after another defeat in Strasbourg this Saturday (1-3).
Kita’s incredible decision
Seeing Antoine Kombouaré return to Nantes after his stay between 2021 and 2023 is surprising in more than one way. Dismissed from his position a year ago while the club was vegetating in the red zone, the technician who worked for Paris Saint-Germain has never broken his emotional bond with the club which revealed him, but he maintains relationships quite fresh with Waldemar Kita.
A situation which obviously did not prevent the manager from calling on him. FC Nantes’ commando mission has begun. With only one objective, in a Ligue 1 to 18: maintenance.
