Whilst Yannick Cahuzac’s exit from RC Lens has not yet been made official, the Ligue 1 club are drawing up a shortlist of replacements. As reported by L’Équipe, Pierre Sage, whose exit from Crystal Palace has not yet been officialised either, is a candidate to return to the Bollaert, just months after leaving.
Foot Mercato understands that Sage is the priority to replace Cahuzac, however, a three-man shortlist was referenced by L’Equipe. One of the other names on that shortlist, Foot Mercato now reports, is Didier Digard. He was recently sacked by Le Havre AC, who are bottom of the table. Despite that, his work has earned him plaudits. Le HAC have worked on a shoestring budget for several years, but despite that, Digard has kept them in the top-flight.
President Jean-Michel Roussier and sporting director Demba Ba disagreed so strongly with the decision (one made by the Blue Crow owners) to sack the former OGC Nice manager, that they chose to resign. Digard is now viewed as a potential successor to Cahuzac at Lens.
