Lyon has officially parted ways with Laurent Blanc. It seems that the rumors a few days ago have finally been answered and with this Lyon will immediately look for a new coach to fill the vacant coaching chair. Laurent Blanc was fired by Lyon after a poor start to the season, suffering many defeats and eventually placing them at the bottom of the standings. At this time it has not been confirmed that an interim coach will be appointed in the near future and considering that this week Ligue 1 has started again, Lyon must move quickly before they suffer another bad result.
Finally it's happening. Lyon can't always let blanc to destroy its club. There are no lots of change happened with this club but i saw that how lyon showed different performance compared with last season.
Lyon has chosen Jean-François Vulliez as a new caretaker for the club when lyon is seeking a new candidate to replace blanc. Im sure that lyon's director has been losing their patience for blanc.
We would like to thank Laurent Blanc and his staff for their commitment and professionalism over the past 11 months at the helm of the team,” the statement concluded. Deputy coach Jean-François Vulliez has been appointed caretaker, working alongside former Lyon players Jérémie Bréchet and Sonny Anderson.
