The situation at Sochaux seems to be undergoing significant changes, with the president, Laurent Pernet, confirming the appointment of a new coach to replace Eric Hély before the upcoming match against Bordeaux.
Various names have been circulated as potential candidates for the coaching position, including Pablo Corea, Hervé Renard, Louis Fernandez, and now Jean Pierre Papin. The club appears to be exploring multiple options to find the right fit for the role.
In the interim, Omar Daf, a Senegalese coach, has been trusted to lead the team in their match against Valenciennes during the 8th day of Ligue 1. This decision suggests that Sochaux’s leadership is taking steps to address the coaching situation promptly.
The club’s current position at the bottom of Ligue 1 adds urgency to the need for a coaching change, and the appointment of a new coach is likely seen as a crucial step in attempting to improve the team’s performance and standings in the league. The upcoming match against Bordeaux will be a significant test for the new coach as they aim to turn the team’s fortunes around.
