Lens appoint Digard as coach until 2028
Didier Digard replaces Yannick Cahuzac, who was sacked after a string of defeats, including a 9-1 Champions League defeat by Como.
RC Lens has welcomed Didier Digard as their new head coach, signing him to a contract that runs until June 2028. This comes just a day after the club parted ways with Yannick Cahuzac, who had been dismissed following a series of losses, including a 9-1 defeat in the Champions League against Como. The 40-year-old, who has a successful history as a player with Paris St Germain, Middlesbrough, Nice, and Real Betis, will be in charge until 2028.
Previously at Nice, Digard led the team to the Conference League quarter-finals in the 2022-23 season, securing 10 wins, seven draws, and four losses. Currently, Lens sits 11th in Ligue 1 with 13 points and 33rd in the Champions League standings with just three points. Their next match is against Toulouse, scheduled for next week.
